So I go to the Open with the intention of hopefully bringing some inspiration to those who take a few hours out of their day to come watch me. That's what I look forward to.
She's really into helping me make coffee, ... You realize when you have special moments, they don't quite absorb it. They're not interested in your dramas.
No chance for me to play again ? it's very dangerous and risky for my future. This is an unfortunate setback.
Right now, I'm not in a position to be out there. I'm way less than 100 percent.
Let's be clear about something. I wasn't the winner, tennis was. I never felt I was going to win that match but somehow it just fell my way.
The court was playing pretty fast, it almost felt like playing tennis with golf balls out there. But I am feeling fine physically. I think need a few more matches before I can start competing better.
It felt great, ... It means a lot more than the 19th and a lot less than the 21st.
It feels amazing, ... This is why you work so hard. These moments don't happen very often anymore. I'm taking it in, and it's feeling pretty good.
It felt good, it was pain free. I've just got to run faster now, that's all.

I think he's the best I've played against. But I also think the accomplishment of winning that many Slams requires a number of things, including a little bit of luck to make sure you're healthy, nothing goes wrong.
