I have learnt to be even more patient.

I love tennis! I've always felt like this because it is such a classy sport with a great, competitive flair to it.

I'm proud to be a symbol like the army knife or the mountains.

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

You can be stubborn and successful or you can give it up a bit and change things around. For me it's important to have a bit of both.

I never expected i, in the first place, when I started playing tennis, that I would ever carry the flag into the Olympic Stadium for an Olympic Games... So for me that was a surprise and a huge honor in my life to be able to represent Switzerland.

For me, it's important that a fan can buy something that is related to me. Like in soccer, you buy a shirt and it's got somebody's name on the back. That's kind of a cool thing.
