It's a great record to have here, ... It's not an easy Grand Slam, not an easy tournament to do well at. To go out successfully every year, it's a huge positive I think. I love playing in New York. I love the conditions, the court surface, the balls, everything about it.

There's no doubt about that, whether it's the balls or not.
