"I don't play any tournaments to come second best."
"I'd like to say that I am romantic person, but I don't think I am. When I won my first tournament I went into the crowd and kissed my girlfriend. I was 18 and didn't have my coach with me, I was there on my own, and I just needed to celebrate with someone I knew. I always start out with good intentions. I'll say something nice, then I'll just put my foot in it and ruin the moment."

"It's not the end of the world to lose."
"In tennis, it is not the opponent you fear, it is the failure itself, knowing how near you were but just out of reach."
"I used to think that losing made you more hungry and determined but after my success at the Olympics and the U.S. Open I realise that winning is the biggest motivation."
"You have to go into each match believing you can beat all of the players."
"Give it everything you've got. Leave nothing out there."
