The future is flying home. That's the immediate future. But long-distance future, I plan on being back. I'm not going to end my time here with that loss.

My goal one day is to be in the same sentence as Rod Laver and Ken Rosewall.

People watched the Masters. It was a huge event. It was at The Garden. Now that it is over here in Europe, it has lost a little bit of popularity in the States.

I made it look so easy on court all those years. No one realized how hard I had to work. No one realized how much I had to put into it. They underestimated my intensity.

Retirement is a work in progress. I try to figure out my day, and what I know about myself is that I need structure.

I never wanted to be the great guy or the colorful guy or the interesting guy. I wanted to be the guy who won titles.

Winning is about taking your opponent's heart out and squeezing it until all the blood has come out, even the very last drop. There are no prizes for a funny loser.
