I Think Younger Players Probably Just Think

Don't Let Anyone Define You. You Define Yourself.

Sports Are A Microcosm Of Society.

I Feel That Tennis Is An Art Form That Is Capable Of Moving The Players And The Audience - At Least A Knowledgeable Audience-in Almost Sensual Ways. When I'm Performing At My Absolute Best, I Think That Some Of The Euphoria I Feel Must Be Transmitted To The Audience.

I've Never Cared That Much For Cementing My Place In History. Sports Is So Transitory, So Ephemeral. It Just Seems Like So Much Nonsense Comparing Me To Helen Wills Moody Or Suzanne Lenglen Or Anybody Else From Some Other Time. One Lesson You Learn From Sports Is That Life Goes On Without You.

I Always Think It's Best To Pretend You're In A Tenuous Position. Just As A Player, You Always Want To Stay In The Now And Work Hard But Also Have Goals For The Future. There's No Promises In Any Entrepreneurial Business. You Have To Really Work Hard Every Year And Also Try To Envision Where You Want To Go In The Future At The Same Time.
