I have never tried to compare myself to anyone else.

I have never tried to compare myself to anyone else.

I fail sometimes, I succeed sometimes, so that's fair enough. It's a package deal. It comes with that package: failures and success.

As a kid I loved John McEnroe. They called me Mac because, while everyone else liked Borg, I was crazy about McEnroe. I tried wearing headbands and sweatbands, and whooping at people. It didn't quite work.

I don't open the newspapers (to see what's written about me). I don't read them and you can see them hanging at the stand outside my hotel room. I focus on my game only. Last 21 years have been really special for me and I throughly enjoyed my joyful journey

But eventually it is a game of cricket.

When there is time to think about cricket, I think but when there is time to be with family, I try to do justice to that aspect of my life as well.
