One of my big, big strengths I think early on in my career was that I could learn very quickly. You wouldn't have to tell me the things 10 times or 50 times until I would understand them. You would only have to tell me two or three times.

Clearly, when you win everything, it's fun. That doesn't necessarily mean you love the game more.

I definitely need to use my chances when they come because definitely there wont be many.

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.

You always want to win. That is why you play tennis, because you love the sport and try to be the best you can at it.

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.

It doesn't need to be the same every day, doesn't need to be the same shower I use, the same restaurant I go to, the same hour I go to sleep. I've always been very flexible. I don't care if I practice at nine in the morning or 10 P.M.
