There is no way around the hard work. Embrace it.

Having twin girls is a life changer - that's for sure. But I like getting up and changing diapers. It's the things you do.

I think it's very hard for coaches to work with me. They'll no doubt have a good CV afterwards, but at the same time they're under a lot of pressure.

What I think I've been able to do well over the years is play with pain, play with problems, play in all sorts of conditions.

My dad said if you become a tennis professional just make sure you get into the top hundred, because you have to make a little bit of money. You make a living so you can pay your coaching and, you know, your travels.

The week before the (US Open) I gave a few interviews for CNN, USA Network, New York Times, USA Today and Sports Illustrated which had been arranged beforehand. The reason for giving these interviews is not only because working with the media is just part of the job, it is much more my desire to contribute to the promotion of tennis in the U.S.

Being a husband is for me as big a priority as being a father.
