I'm Really, Really Emotional.

I Am Afraid Of A Lot Of Things. A Dog. I Could Be Afraid Of A Dog That's Upset, For Example. And On The Tennis Courts, Maybe On The Outside I Look Fearless, But On The Inside, I'm Scared. There's Not One Player In The World Who Isn't Nervous Before Matches. Especially Important Matches.

The Us Player Andy Roddick Reaches Speeds Of 220 Kilometers Per Hour When He Serves. If I Train With Him Every Day, I Will Later Be At An Advantage Against A Player Whose Service Crosses The Net At 190 Kilometers Per Hour.

I Was Passionate About Soccer. I Still Am. Odd, Though - Playing Soccer Always Made Me Much More Anxious Than Playing Tennis. On Soccer Days, I'd Be Out Of Bed By 6 In The Morning, All Nervous. But I Was Always Calm When It Was Time For A Tennis Match. I Still Don't Know Why.

I Learned During All My Career To Enjoy Suffering.

You Know, A Lot Of Things Changed. What Never Changed Is The Illusion To Keep Playing Tennis, The Illusion To Keep Doing Well The Things, And The Illusion To Be In A Good Position Of The Ranking And Play These Kind Of Matches.
