sports eye player
I've been asked a lot lately if tennis is clean or not. I don't know any more how you judge whether a sport is clean. If one in 100 players is doping, in my eyes that isn't a clean sport.
sports athlete use
A lot of athletes use sports psychologists.
sports art boxing
Boxing, mixed martial arts and tennis are the hardest sports to train for.
sports nice essence
Everything in tennis is so neat and nice but boxing has sport down to its essence; it is very pure and I like that.
sports self tennis
Tennis is an individual sport, and I am quite a self-conscious person.

I've never thought about doing this. I just enjoy a challenge ... This is the next challenge.
determination fall goals great scoring
Vancouver's got such a great team. To fall down two goals to them (and come back), showed a lot of determination on the part of our team. I thought we had the better scoring chances.
against alongside brother chance containing cup england event great home likes memorable occasion people promises scotland special sure team
The Aberdeen Cup promises to be a memorable event. To play for a Scotland team on my home turf against an England team containing the likes of Greg Rusedski is a great opportunity. To have the chance to play alongside my brother will make it a particularly special occasion and I'm sure the people of Aberdeen will make it an event to remember.
confident feeling normally obviously returning serve
He obviously didn't serve as well as he can. I don't know if that was because I was returning very well or if he just wasn't feeling as confident as he normally was.
against best chances easier good match players struggling
Obviously, Ferrero's one of the best players in the world, ... My chances wouldn't have been so good against him. But Clement has been struggling a little bit. It's probably an easier match than it would have been against Ferrero.
certainly earlier penalty rankings shot
We go by the rankings we have in practice, and he certainly was one of our better ones. He scored on a penalty shot earlier this year.
good penalty power tonight took
Tonight we took some unnecessary penalties. Our penalty kill was not good and their power play was good.
hard trying
I've been working hard on my composure, trying not to show much emotion.
break hold serve sick taking tough
It was pretty tough to go and hold your serve after taking a break as long as that. I didn't feel sick at all after that. It didn't make a difference.
