I had set a goal with my team to try and get back to the top of the rankings, but I never thought with the depth in the game this year that I would have been able to get it back so quickly.

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

I never waited 27 years, because 27 years ago I was just born. My parents never told me, 'If you don't win Roland Garros we take you to the orphanage.

I always had the dream that, once I became No 1 in the world, that if I had a child I hoped I would have it early enough so the child can see me playing.

The crowds are very important for tennis. It makes you play better, but it can also make you nervous and that's the beauty of 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.

Simple version for me is, umm, started bad and finished bad basically.
