tennis emotion
There is a fear of emotion in tennis.
talking tennis feelings
You are always talking about yourself and tennis and how you are feeling. I try to avoid it when I don't have to.
play perfect tennis
Sometimes you're looking to play perfect tennis but it's not going to happen all the time and you have to accept it.
winning guy tennis
I proved that I can win the Grand Slams. I proved that I can last four and a half hours and come out on top against one of the strongest guys physically that tennis had probably seen especially on this surface. So they would probably be the things that I would say I have learned tonight: To not doubt myself physically and mentally from now on.
tennis mum wells
Well, my mum's been a tennis coach - she coached me till I was 12.
perfect tennis finals
It would have been better if I had won, but reaching the final was perfect.
sports self tennis
Tennis is an individual sport, and I am quite a self-conscious person.
hard-work player tennis
For me the most important thing has always been tennis, and that's what I want to get across the image I want to portray is a hard-working tennis player.
games tennis elements
I wouldn't say I'm a spender in the sense that I'm going out on huge spending sprees. However, to be able to function at the top of your game on the professional tennis circuit often requires an element of frequent spending.
knowing tennis opponents
In tennis, it is not the opponent you fear, it is the failure itself, knowing how near you were but just out of reach.
challenge enjoy next
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.
