thinking mind serious
I don't think anyone in their right mind takes me serious.
taken class littles
I cook a little - I've never taken classes or anything - but enough to get by.
past bags looks
When you make the schedule, you're not planning on playing deep into every single week, or at least I haven't in the past. I'm not physically or mentally ready to pick up my bags and go to Monte Carlo. I definitely have to look at what's best for my chances at (at the French Open).
levels given certain
Once you get to a certain level, anybody can beat anybody else on any given day.
gun two people
No, if I wore a sleeveless shirt, people would try to feed me after the match. If you got the guns, go for it. I got two breadsticks sticking out of my sleeve. I'll stick with sleeves.
stupid player mph
I've become better at the net. I've got a 135 mph serve so I'd be stupid not to follow that in. Overall I'm a better player than I was last year.
home player thinking
Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.
dog small-dogs tennis
My serve has killed a small dog ... I'm joking, I'm joking! The dog was huge!
games giving return
If I can break one out of every three return games, I'm going to give myself a shot in a lot of matches.
inspirational motivational success
At one point in your life, you'll have the thing you want or the reasons why you don't.
enjoy florida home lake tennis time
I don't think about tennis 24/7. I enjoy time on the lake at my Florida home and just being lazy on the sofa.
bit hours optimistic prospects shock
Twenty-four hours ago, I was really optimistic about my prospects here. I'm in a little bit of shock right now, to be honest.
credit pressure puts
To his credit, that's the kind of pressure he puts on guys.
anybody best care decision felt health keeps knows playing prospects rest
To his credit, he knows how to take care of his body. He knows better than anybody else what keeps you out there at 35 years old and still playing well, ... He made a decision that he felt was best for his health and for his prospects the rest of the summer.
