Oh, my God, I don't think any player can look forward to or expect to a career of so many Grand Slam wins or title wins or being so long at the top of the game.

The serve, I was too young and too small and... not enough powerful to have a good serve when I was young, so my forehand was always my signature shot. So I used to always run around my backhand, you know, use my forehand as much as I could, and so that's why I think it's my strength also today, you know.

With all the injury problems we have in men's tennis at the moment, I'm happy to still be standing.

I used to get nervous, you know if my parents would come watch. And then I would get nervous if my friends came and watched. Today it's not a problem anymore actually, because now I enjoy it. I see that they, you know, respect me immensely, and I try to put on a good show and show that I can still play very good tennis.

I always believe if you're stuck in a hole and maybe things aren't going well you will come out stronger. Everything in life is this way.

I always knew I had something special.

It's not so simple to just stay in the moment and trust your game and your strength that you can turn it around.
