I used to go to the US Open on my birthdays and sit in the nosebleeds.

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.

Call me All-American, but I love Ham and Cheese sandwiches. And not just any old ham and cheese sandwich... My mother's is the best. I've tried many times to make these sandwiches on my own, but it's never the same.

I think if I believe in something strongly enough, I'm pretty outspoken about it.

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.

The whole point of team competition is to pick your teammates up.

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.

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 don't have much interest in being on a senior tour. I don't think I retired so that I could be on tour.

I'm the most successful bad player ever.

I try not to take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time.

I always said if I had to pick one Grand Slam to win, it would be the U.S. Open.

In the States, tennis is sixth or seventh on the totem pole as far as sports go.

I played basketball in high school, and I love watching sports - I'll watch everything except maybe hockey.

Almost everybody's here doing the same thing. Who am I to come up with an excuse when there's 64 other players here doing the same thing? 63 others, sorry.

I've pretty much been portrayed as every style thing you can be. After Wimbledon you are Andy Everyman, who everybody is rooting for. I think the meat and potatoes of who I am hasn't been covered yet.

I don't really rate press conferences. It's not as though I leave the room fist-pumping my way down the corridor after a good one.

There have been great champions in every generation.

I got to play in a crowd, play in Wimbledon finals, be the guy on a Davis Cup team for a while. Those are opportunities not a lot of people get.
