The most important thing in tennis is to love the game.

A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning.

Tennis is a perfect combination of violent action taking place in an atmosphere of total tranquility.

The fifth set is not about tennis, it’s about nerves.

Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.

I hate to lose more than I love to win.

The idea is not to block every shot. The idea is to make your opponent believe that you might block every shot.

My attitude is that if you push me towards something that you think is a weakness, then I will turn that perceived weakness into a strength.

Ask not what your teammates can do for you. Ask what you can do for your teammates.

Good players want to be coached… Great players want to be told the truth.
