“Pressure is a privilege. It means you've earned it.”

“The great part about tennis is you can't run out the clock... As long as we're still playing, I've got a chance.”

“The difference between the top guys is so small. It's a mental game.”

“My game is a lot about footwork. If I move well, I play well.”

“You have to have a short memory in this sport. You can't dwell on the last point.”

“Davis Cup is a different animal. You're playing for your country.”

“I was never the most talented guy, but I was always the most competitive.”

“I've always been a grinder. I've always known that I have to work hard.”

“You learn more from losing than you do from winning.”

“Being number one is a great feeling, but it's also a heavy burden.”

“I'm not going to be a guy who hangs around for a paycheck. I'm going to play as long as I'm competitive.”

“I always felt like I was an underdog. It fueled me.”
