I don't like to compare years, honestly. I think every year is a different experience, a different challenge. You grow. You evolve as a person and as a player.

The tradition in Serbia has always been team sports - football, basketball, handball, volleyball and water polo, individual sports are not supported.

I am the greatest tennis player. The other players are like coins in my pocket that I give to a homeless man.

Even though now I'm pretty popular in my country and tennis is the No. 1 sport, and I'm very flattered that the people recognise me and come up and give me compliments, I'm more a person who likes to have privacy and peace.

I think luck falls on not just the brave but also the ones who believe they belong there.

I like my groundstrokes, I can say. I like it. That's my game - I'm a groundstroke player and I play pretty aggressive.

My mother is a special story. She went through so much to bring us up, four men at home, especially when our country was going through really difficult times.
