We're breaking records and we're moving forward. I always expected to win Grand Slams. This was meant to be.

You learn so much from your parents. We grew up in a home where we were definitely taught to be confident. I definitely give me parents a lot of credit.

I feel a little more tired than usual, ... Ive had to recover from everything, my illnesses and things this summer. Its not perfect circumstances, but Im definitely going to be out there and hopefully have my letdown after the Open ... I think Ill go in mentally a lot better. When it comes down to it I dont think anyone really wants to play me because I have a lot of weapons and not a ton of weaknesses. My main weakness would probably be an occasional self-destruction mode. So Ill try not to touch that red button accidentally.

As long as we're fit, we just have so much to give on the court.

Rain is good for me. I feel like I achieve clarity actually when it rains. The longer I have to sit and wait, the clearer my game becomes to me.

My parents always told us, you know, you have to get your education. You're not supposed to become a statistic.

I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.
