Unfortunately, my career, it's a little roller-coaster, ... So I need to get used to it. That's how I am.
It wasn't my day today on the serve, Gisela was returning winners on my serve so it was kind of embarrassing for me,
I am going to try to play New Haven probably because I need to play a couple more matches to get used to it, work on my fitness and get my rhythm back.
There's a lot of things in life that we don't know why they're coming exactly at this moment.
I definitely want to get out of tennis and try something completely different.
I'm not a materialistic person.
It was really impossible to break through in Russia. We couldn't buy any balls. We really didn't have any courts, no rackets, nothing. And no people to practice with.
It is very hard for me to switch from clay to grass.
You can find flaws in Agassi and Sampras, but Federer has none.
