Same story now for a little while. A couple of good days followed by a series of difficult ones.
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 don't want to miss this year.
It's good to be back on the court healthy and excited. I am still not as comfortable, and that will take a couple of matches. But what was important was that I was getting into good positions, which means I am moving well.
He deserves support. I just hope it's a great standard match. He's always been a real dangerous player. You never know when somebody comes of age. Certainly watching his wins over the last couple weeks have been great, not only here but also in New Haven. There's no question he's doing something better than he used to.
Oh, how do you find words for what this means? This has been some of the greatest memories I've ever had on the court, ... I'll have these memories the rest of my life. Being in the finals at 35 just means you're going to have to put up with me a lot longer.
It took me a while after Paris to get healed up, a lot longer than I anticipated,
His serve was more awkward than I anticipated. If you don't get a good return, he immediately gets on the offense. That's the sign of a great player.
In the middle to late part of the third set, the sciatic nerve in my back started to get inflamed and it sent pain down my right leg and it got worse by the minute,
It's just been terrible this year for the number of players who haven't been ready to play here,
I threw myself in with eagerness and desire, but it was just too much, too soon.
I just don't think you should have one unless you win it.
I prepare to be there under any circumstances, which in many years has been less than ideal,
I'm enjoying her and the way I feel around her.
I was playing a lot of golf, going out a lot, enjoying Brooke's world,
