What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

When you’re young, you don’t know what you don’t know, so it’s easier to get into that magical thing.

I don’t read all the newspapers.

You win any which way you can. You do what you have to do to get by. That’s the way it works in any job.

You do it for the highs, when you’re totally engrossed and everything’s flowing and whatever you want, you get. It’s like magic. That’s why you play the game. That’s what it’s for. That’s why you work.

If I stay healthy and I’m playing good tennis I have as good a chance as anybody.

It is a big adjustment but I’ve always loved that old saying of Jack Nicklaus: ‘I retired from golf to go to work.’ That sums it up for me.

You can’t really describe how difficult it is to deal with. It is any athlete’s worst nightmare to be accused of cheating by taking drugs. It really is very difficult to put into words how it makes you feel.

It’s not a break until you hold your serve.

The downside isn’t really injury, fear of injury or the process of fighting back from injury. The downside, the very worst thing in the world, is surgery.
