I don't think it really matters, who plays first. Whatever they do, they do.

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

When I committed to playing a little tennis in some exhibitions, it was the best thing for me. It got me in shape. It got me out of the house. It got me doing something I love to do.

Players aren't quite as intimidated by my name.

A couple hundred people around, and I'm shaking.

The difference of great players is at a certain point in a match they raise their level of play and maintain it. Lesser players play great for a set, but then less.

I hate to lose, and I do whatever I can to win, and if it is ugly, it is ugly.
