No chance for me to play again ? it's very dangerous and risky for my future. This is an unfortunate setback.
He's always been a real dangerous player, ... You never know when somebody comes of age or game. (For) some people, it happens a lot earlier than others. I haven't played him in a while. Certainly watching his wins over the last couple weeks have been great, not only here, but also in New Haven (where Blake won the title). He just looks like he's doing a lot of things well. There's no question he's doing something better than he used to do.
He deserves support. I just hope it's a great standard match. He's always been a real dangerous player. You never know when somebody comes of age. Certainly watching his wins over the last couple weeks have been great, not only here but also in New Haven. There's no question he's doing something better than he used to.
While I know that taking injections is not a way of life, I'm only looking at a few years, so that's a reasonable approach towards it.
To see 20,000 people out here after 1 o'clock in the morning, I wasn't the winner,
To say it (the injured hip) was 100 percent would probably be overstating it but to be able to have the time to get it better up to this point is a great sign that it will be 100 percent.
I got a hundred bucks says my baby beats Pete's baby. I just think genetics are in my favour.
I'm going to go down swinging... I'm sure as heck not going to go home and say I had a bad tournament.
The scoreboard said I lost today, but what the scoreboard doesn't say is what it is I have found. Over the last 21 years, I have found loyalty. You have pulled for me on the court and also in life. I found inspiration. You have willed me to succeed, sometimes even in my lowest moments, and I've found generosity. You have given me your shoulders to stand on to reach for my dreams, dreams I could never have reached without you.
Few of us are granted the grace to know ourselves, and until we do, maybe the best we can do is be consistent.
You have to understand who you are and figure out a way to communicate it. It might be in a different industry, but it's about what pumps the blood through your veins, what makes you excited, what pushes your buttons. And then discovering the best way to communicate that, no matter how big or small; it's what you stand for, what you believe in, and what reflects who you are.
I had my moments for sure but I wasn't confrontational. And sometimes you get on the court and you'd find yourself very confrontational. It was all a discovery.
I had moments of my actions and words not reflecting who it is I am - if that defines a punk, then yes, absolutely.
He thinks it's his day, and when you think it's your day, it usually is.
