match might played taylor
I feel like Taylor might have actually played the better match tonight,
ball hitting playing
I feel like I'm hitting the ball well. Now I just need to find my playing form.
ball hitting moving
I feel like I'm hitting the ball well, I feel like I'm moving well. I just want to keep getting through the rounds.
cared mentally work
I feel like I have put more work in mentally and physically, in every which way and I've never cared so much as I do now,
bit came cup davis definitely diligence due felt last played prepare quick ready time
I feel more prepared. Last year, you know, I didn't - we played Davis Cup in December, so by the time this came around it felt pretty quick to me. I definitely feel like I did more due diligence this year, was a little more ready to go and had a little bit more time to prepare on my terms.
body energy felt left
I didn't have anything left in my body to use as fuel. I just felt dead. I had no energy after that. I puked out all my fluids and after that I was pretty dehydrated.
bad felt loss remember
I can't remember a loss after which I felt as bad as this,
bad biggest blow body knows playing pulls question stars time tournament
Obviously, it's a blow to a tournament any time one of the biggest stars we've ever had pulls out, ... But you have to understand, he knows his body best. That's why he's still playing at 35. So, you can't really question the decision, but you feel bad for the tournament.
draw feels open
Obviously, for Roger, I think every draw feels open to him. But, for me, there's no such thing as an open draw.
tennis fifth
Is that the longest fifth set ever? It was? So, no, I've never played one longer than that!
people return volley
I used to hear a lot that all I could do was hit a serve, I couldn't volley, I can't hit a backhand, I don't return well, and then people would turn round and tell me I'm underachieving.
successful player
I'm the most successful bad player ever.
jobs winning should-have
Tennis analyst is the easiest job in the world because whatever the person does, if it works you just say that's what's good, and if it doesn't work, you guys go, 'He should have done the other things.'.It just doesn't take much thought. If I'm grinding and I'm winning, you guys are like, 'He's reinvented himself.' If I'm playing like crap and pushing, then, you know, 'He's horrible and he needs to hit the ball.'
giving tennis lines
I do understand that when someone gives you a [expletive] load of money, you take that money. Someone like Larry Ellison wants to invest into his event and make it the biggest possible, and he gets stopped by the ATP. If you're a start-up, what would make you want to navigate through that and to go through that firing line? How can you step into tennis with any confidence? It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.
