In my mind, I'm always the best. If I walk out on the court (and) I think the next person is better, I've already lost.

In the sports arena I would say there is nothing like training and preparation. You have to train your mind as much as your body.

The most challenging thing is people do see me as a tennis player, but I've had a lot of opportunities because I am a tennis player. And I don't mind that.

Tennis is mostly mental. Of course, you must have a lot of physical skill, but you can't play tennis well and not be a good thinker. You win or lose the match before you even go out there.

I love the food in Thailand because of the exotic spices they use. Their style of cooking is unique to their culture and always amazing.

I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.
