If the girls and boys have talent and feel like working on themselves, they can become champions.

Even if I have already peaked, I have to believe I can improve. I wake up every morning, and go to practice, with the illusion that I'm going to get better that day.

I admire a lot of people, but in terms of sport I've always loved the mentality of Tiger Woods on a golf course. I always love his eyes when he's setting himself and focusing on his decision; he has a really strong, focused face and believes that he can make the shot.

I feel that love. I feel that energy. I always felt that energy when I'm playing in New York.

It is important to recognize the small successes.

Everyone is entitled to have their own opinions.

It is the small steps which bring you satisfaction at the end of the day.
