If Davis Cup was a little bit less or once every two years, I would be more inclined to play. But the way it is now, it is too much tennis for me.

In tennis, you can make a couple of mistakes and still win. Not in golf. I played three rounds in that Tahoe event, and I was drained. Mentally, not physically.

Tennis is seen all around the world; if I am home or anywhere in the country, United States, people will stare.

When you retire you want to get as far away as possible from the game for a couple of years.

People know me. I`m not going to produce any cartwheels out there. I`m not going to belong on Comedy Central. I`ll always be a tennis player, not a celebrity.

Golfers are forever working on mechanics. My tennis swing hasn`t changed in 10 years.

I don`t know how I do it, I really don`t.

I let my racket do the talking. That`s what I am all about, really. I just go out and win tennis matches.

Where I fall down is my short game. I don`t practice enough, and when I have to take a half swing from 50 yards out, that`s trouble.

The difference of great players is at a certain point in a match they raise their level of play and maintain it. Lesser players play great for a set, but then less.

It is nice to walk out on a court to have it packed.

You kind of live and die by the serve.

For so long people have just taken what I do for granted. It is not easy to do year-in, year-out, to win Grand Slams and be No. 1.

There`s always one shot that I can rely on when I`m not hitting the ball that well, is my serve.

I am going to hold serve the majority of the time. It is nice to have a little time to return serve.
