I'd love to see a seniors event at U.S. Open in singles, not just hit-and-giggle doubles.
I want to inspire the old people. The old dog wants to teach the young guys a few new tricks.
I'm surprised that it went to the final tiebreaker, but the right team won.
I'm the oldest guy in the field and I was playing until 9.30 the night before.
It's hard to be in a booth five hours, step out of the booth and be on the court in 20 minutes. I feel like I've been fortunate to have the opportunity to get into the commentating, and I want to do that right and correctly, and I'm not sure I have enough in the tank, so to speak, to do both.
The ushers are looking for a couple of bucks and they will sit people down right in the middle of the game. They will do it and you've got to live with that.
It would be more interesting, more exciting, if a player lost a point if wrong on the second challenge. It would make the player think before challenging. Particularly in a tie-breaker where every point counts.
It would be fitting; I hope he does it. For a country like Croatia, it would mean even more than when I did it for the States.
That was a brutal call. The whole thing could have just turned. It was inside the line.
I would be lying to you if said I'm not thinking about it.
Simply the fact that (Agassi) has put out more and James is fresher coming in.
I felt like I had it in me, but I didn't know quite what was going to happen.
Neutering is good for his temper, it's good for his health, and it's the most important thing you can do to make a difference for homeless animals! ... Did you know that shelters have to kill more than 4 million animals every year just because there aren't enough good homes out there? I can't have that on my conscience!
A lot of time there is hype and people talking about players when deep down they know it's not going to happen but Murray is really capable of being a great player. He has a way of keeping you off balance and a real feel for the game. Mentally he's proved to be pretty tough and his body has grown as well recently. He plays hard, shows a lot of emotion and is a breath of fresh air. Just the type of player tennis needs.
