Things slow down, the ball seems a lot bigger and you feel like you have more time. Everything computes - you have options, but you always take the right one.
But these guys learn so fast now, they sort of soak up the information, they're fearless. Those are the guys who learn from their mistakes and come back strong the next time.
It can work. Hopefully, we can find a way into some of the big events; a combination of places like Naples, as well as having an event at the U.S. Open or Wimbledon.
I think it can. The powers that be, IMG, the ATP, need to work together more coherently.
It would be more interesting, more exciting, if a player lost a point if wrong on the second challenge. It would make the player think before challenging. Particularly in a tie-breaker where every point counts.
Most guys would like to play the guy they have the winning record against. That's what you love about Roger he embraces the challenge.
C'mon, Anna, right at the girl, ... She's the champion of Canada.
The ushers are looking for a couple of bucks and they will sit people down right in the middle of the game. They will do it and you've got to live with that.
Roddick is already feeling the heat because he took a step back this last year. There's no doubt that if (Federer) plays up to his capability, he's going to win it.
It's hard to be in a booth five hours, step out of the booth and be on the court in 20 minutes. I feel like I've been fortunate to have the opportunity to get into the commentating, and I want to do that right and correctly, and I'm not sure I have enough in the tank, so to speak, to do both.
A lot of time there is hype and people talking about players when deep down they know it's not going to happen but Murray is really capable of being a great player. He has a way of keeping you off balance and a real feel for the game. Mentally he's proved to be pretty tough and his body has grown as well recently. He plays hard, shows a lot of emotion and is a breath of fresh air. Just the type of player tennis needs.
The important thing is to learn a lesson every time you lose.
Do you have any problems, other than that you're unemployed, a moron, and a dork?
I think it's the mark of a great player to be confident in tough situations.
