Quote

Why would I get a wild card into an American tournament, (as the) top-ranked American? Why would that happen? That makes too much sense. Maybe I should play more Davis Cup, that's the story. Oh wait, I do.

I want everyone to look back and think that I was awesome.

I've become better at the net. I've got a 135 mph serve so I'd be stupid not to follow that in. Overall I'm a better player than I was last year.

When you make the schedule, you're not planning on playing deep into every single week, or at least I haven't in the past. I'm not physically or mentally ready to pick up my bags and go to Monte Carlo. I definitely have to look at what's best for my chances at (at the French Open).

If I can break one out of every three return games, I'm going to give myself a shot in a lot of matches.

Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.

I'll be the first to admit it, the life I'm leading is basically a joke. I should probably be cooler about it, but I can't fake it, you know?

I don't think I'm one of those guys who won't pick up a racket for three years...I love hitting tennis balls.

My backhand is definitely a lot more solid and consistent. There were times when I couldn't hit it into the ocean.

I don't want to live and die with every point that's being played out there now. I'm going to let my coach live and die with every point.

No, actually I wanted to play five. I definitely wanted to try to lose that fourth set and test the waters in the fifth.

I used to, like, hit for a half hour and then go eat Cheetos the rest of the day, come out and drill forehands. Now I'm really trying to make it happen, being professional, really going for it, and I miss my Cheetos.

I think the medical term for the injury is 'the bottom of my ass hurts.'

My aggression out there is my weapon. I think it's more letting them know that I'm not going to let them get away with something, and I'm not just going to kind of poke it back and be content to stay in rallies.

I'm gonna have to start winning some of the matches to call it a rivalry!

I don't know that I'll ever be the guy who needs to go to a tournament to be seen and to spectate. I feel like I can accomplish spectating from home.
