The alternative is me not being at my best, me being out there in the situation where I can do more damage to myself and not be part of more tournaments, … I’m trying to...

It’s very sticky. It stops and everything else moves, … It’s hard to have confidence. Then when you try a little bit, it’s still painful…I was just getting worse. It’s not ready.

To say it (the injured hip) was 100 percent would probably be overstating it but to be able to have the time to get it better up to this point is a great sign that...

I’ve been thinking that for four years. You never know when it’s your last go,

I was playing a lot of golf, going out a lot, enjoying Brooke’s world,

Roger played way too good today. I just lost to a guy who is better. He is the best I have ever played against.

I just don’t think you should have one unless you win it.

My relationship with the fans from early on went from not being well received to finding as much support there as I do anywhere in the world,

Older people make this mistake all the time with younger people, treating them as a finished product when in fact they are in process.

In every match I play, I grow in my appreciation for this opportunity, this chance to be out there playing at the U.S. Open for another match, another time,

It is not realistic for me to consider myself competitive on clay. The wear and tear it puts on my body has set me back the last couple of years. And Wimbledon is something that...

I question myself every day. That’s what I still find motivating about this. I don’t have the answers, I don’t pretend that I do just because I won the match. Just keep fighting and maybe...

I’ve played No. 1 in the world tennis before and there wasn’t a time when I ever felt like a favorite,

He’s the only guy I’ve ever played where you hold serve to go 1-0 and you’re thinking, ‘All right, good. The amount of options he has to get around any particular stage of the match...

There’s other guys – I’ve played a lot of them, I mean, so many years – (against whom) there’s a safety zone, there’s a place to get to, there’s something to focus on, there’s a...

There’s records I’m proud of,

I’m in the finals, it’s awesome.

He kept raising his game, … He had me under a lot of pressure. He went through a stretch there where I was lucky if every third point I was in the point. I mean,...

The wear and tear of the clay-court season is something that has set me back in the past in terms of the grass-court season, and the grass is something that I don’t want to miss...

Certainly coming out here for the first match in such a long time, I couldn’t have expected that standard, to be that comfortable, … I just settled in early. Sometimes you can really get too...

Maybe I don’t know yet how to be happy and play well at the same time.

I knew I was in a tussle at that point.

I couldn’t really hit balls for a month at least due to my ankle. You come back, try to get ready in a hurry and you force it and things just don’t respond if you...

On the heels of our new partnership with Tamarack Resort, we felt that the people of Boise would really embrace Rock-n-Racquets, … Our intention is to bring this unique event to a market that typically...

My kids thought they were on Mars. We couldn’t get a word in edgewise, but it was fun to just sit and watch them.

Today required a lot of concentration, because it only took a mental lapse for one or two shots and the set’s over, … So it was really difficult mentally to stay the course.

It was blown up like a balloon and twice the size,

In your first match it’s always a bit awkward, it’s the new year and you’re getting used to conditions,

This certainly isn’t easy to do at any age, especially at 35. It’s been a privilege to play against many of the greatest players over the decades and Roger has been one of the most...

He can keep his spin, but I’d rather take away his speed ? or make him right-handed. Any one of those things would change the dynamics dramatically. I’d first go speed, (and) then I’d go...

He’s always been a real dangerous player,

Well, I actually tell my son that I don’t have any hair because he asked me the same question that I gave it to him when he was born, so he actually still believes that....

I got a hundred bucks says my baby beats Pete’s baby. I just think genetics are in my favour.

It’s an incredible serve. A lot of guys can serve it 135-plus. The trajectory is the main issue. You’re sort of diving, and then you can’t reach it, even if you dive perfectly and on...

Let’s be clear about something. I wasn’t the winner, tennis was. I never felt I was going to win that match but somehow it just fell my way.

It’s too difficult for guys to run as hard as they do over and over again,

Somebody or something has to truly represent the better interest of the sport, … It’s important for there to be resolve.

Our vision is to create an exceptional lifestyle offering worthy of Tamarack’s incredible surroundings. All of our partners involved in this development are committed to delivering the highest level of quality and luxury possible. We...

To see 20,000 people out here after 1 o’clock in the morning, I wasn’t the winner,

I think he’s very talented. You know, I think had he gone about his career by investing in himself a little bit more, by choosing his tournaments, by trying to peak for the right tournament,...

You need to play the craziest tennis you’ve ever played or he needs to be doing something off because you have to do it for such a long period of time.

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt good on the court. It’s just getting tiring, that’s all. I’ve been through it before but each time it gets tougher. I mean, it’s a delicate juggling...

I prepare to be there under any circumstances, which in many years has been less than ideal,

Walking to the net, I’m certain that I’ve lost to the better man, the Everest of the next generation. I pity the young players who will have to contend with him. I feel for the...

I was a bit discouraged there in the fourth. He went through a stretch there where I was lucky if every third point, I was in the point. He was hitting ace after ace. I...

I wasn’t the winner, … Tennis was.

means as much to me as doing it in the finals.

If you could start the point off from the baseline, it would be a very one-sided match,

You step on the court feeling like you have to play a perfect match.

I had his back against the wall to some degree but he just figured that to be a cue for him to do something else,
