When one gets beaten by somebody better, one has to know how to lose with humility. Sure, I could have served better. Sure, I could have hit my forehand harder. But the truth was this was like an avalanche, and there was no way to stop it.

If you are healthy, you can work. If you can work, then the chances of success are higher.

I just try to win the match by fighting for every point, and running down every ball.

I have no interest in becoming a tax exile and living somewhere I don't want to - I just want to be at home with my family.

Hard courts are very negative for the body. I know the sport is a business and creating these courts is easier than clay or grass, but I am 100 per cent sure it is wrong.

My goal is to improve my game, stay healthy and be competitive. If I have that, I know I can be able to win tournaments, which in the end is what it counts.

I only ever run when there's some point to it - say, if it's in a game of tennis.
