I have always considered tennis as a combat in an arena between two gladiators who have their racquets and their courage as their weapons.

Being in the stands is very difficult. I was never playing but I am nervous watching, waiting.

In black Africa, one does not strike, one does not express, one walks right.

It made me hungry. I feel like I'm in a program that really helped me individually as a player. I feel like I'm with a group of guys that are like my best friends.

I always traveled. I left Cameroon when I was 11 years old. I lived in the USA, in Switzerland.

At one time, I was persuaded to want to make music, and people answered me that that was not possible.
