Yeah, it was bizarre, ... I think it was distracting for both of us, to be honest. ... If it's a final, it's obviously different. It was super-strange, that's for sure.
You know the reason I don't watch the news is because I don't like violence,
I don't think Serena had her best day,
I am fully fit. If I wasn't fully fit, I would still say I'm fully fit, so I'm fully fit.
I am very disappointed to withdraw. But I feel like I need more time before I am able to compete at the highest level.
I guess I shouldn't expect anything less from Serena Williams.
I did rehab and tried to get better the best that I could. I wasn't playing at 100 percent ? preparation or health ? and I didn't want to come back until I knew I could do that.
I'd like to achieve health the whole year, stay strong and stay healthy and avoid the viruses,
Obviously, if Serena was No. 60 in the world, not a huge threat, it would be completely different, and the same for me, vice versa,
She's obviously a great player, doing things on the court that amazing, ... She's motivating other people all over the world to do their best both on the court and off the court, so I think it will be really cool and I regard her.
She's definitely on the verge of more great things, for sure.
She's definitely a little more fiery than I am, ... I keep it a little more even-keel.
She always comes out with her best game against me, ... I feel like I'll definitely be able to play better on, what will it be, Tuesday. I'm looking forward to it. Serena's promised to help me get my game together.
She doesn't know that I have a food taster.
