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.

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

I am thinking more and more about what I want to and can do after my days as an active athlete. Thoughts like family and marriage also cross my mind more and more often.

Confidence? Are you kidding me? I mean, please. Look, some players grow up and play like that. I remember losing junior matches. Just being down 5-2 in the third, and they all just start slapping shots.

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

I used to do a lot of video analysis early on, but more for pleasure and looking at my own technique.

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