We can say for sure our sport is the leading, if not the top, sport in drug testing in both its intensity and as far as what they test for. It’s a very extensive list,...

Some moments it feels longer, other moments it feels like it’s flown by; you can’t believe you’ve done it all that time… Overall, you have a strong sense for the full spectrum that you’ve sort...

The court was playing pretty fast, it almost felt like playing tennis with golf balls out there. But I am feeling fine physically. I think need a few more matches before I can start competing...

I kept my head down and kept wanting to make him earn it. In the third and fourth set, I felt I was a bit living on the edge with my serve. But then in...

It’s like a car going uphill with no brakes. You’re either going forward or backwards. I feel like when I’m at home watching it, I’m going backwards.

I can live with losing, I can’t live with not taking my chance. I wasn’t happy about being in a fifth after being up two sets to love, but I did know I was going...

You never know how it’s going to be.

Pretty amazing. I don’t know if I can put in context how this compares with some of my greatest experiences on the tennis court, but I know it’s right up there, because this is what...

I was useless, to be quite honest, as being clear on what was going on out there,

I just have a lot to be thankful for inside those lines, and certainly outside those lines as well, … I’m more motivated now than ever to go out there and figure out a way...

I love playing here — a lot of memories, a lot of great matches. This is disappointing. It would have been nice to be here, but it’s not worth being less than my best.

Unfortunately, I know this process all too well, … I know exactly what it needs.

I address the trophy and the warped reflection: All the pain and suffering you’ve caused me.

I need to work, and this is my work, … I’m a tennis player, and I’ll do it as hard as I can as long as I can, from how I see it right now.

It’s an incredible serve, … The trajectory is the main issue because you’re lunging but then it’s up. You’re sort of diving, but then you can’t reach it, even if you dive perfectly on cue.

That’ll be a tough match, … These are tough conditions ? quick courts, wind. He’s a quick-court player. He uses the pace really well and moves the ball around. I’ll have my hands full.

I’ll gladly take somebody along the ride with me,

If I was coaching him, I’d fine him $100 every time he hit a groundstroke, … In his most difficult moments, he was more awkward than I anticipated.

Most people have weaknesses, … Federer doesn’t have weaknesses. So that equates to a problem. I mean, I could lie, I could say something else, but he’s earned that respect.

I might surprise you a little bit, … I feel good. I’m certainly going to be looking forward to it. Mentally just being out there is going to take care of that. Physically I’ll be...

How do you find words for what this means? … This has been some of the greatest memories I’ve ever had on a tennis court.

There’s so many faces you don’t recognize anymore, to play against someone you know makes it that much more comfortable.

Each set my quality picked up, and in the fourth set we were both playing well.

I’m going to go down swinging… I’m sure as heck not going to go home and say I had a bad tournament.

Nothing can substitute for just plain hard work. I had to put in the time to get back. And it was a grind. It meant training and sweating every day. But I was completely committed...

Pete was great, … (But) I think (Federer) is the best I’ve played against.

It never seizes to amaze me how much I enjoy playing here and how much you fans have meant to me over the years.
