More quotes by Jim Courier
Fear is an interesting energy that we all have to face. Some people step up and aren't afraid but still come up short. And some would rather cop out: My shoulder hurts or I didn't give it my all. They can sleep at night.
Jim Courier
There's a reason why Federer and Nadal are so gracious when they lose. They sleep well at night knowing that they've given their best.
Jim Courier
Even the poor can be fat in the U.S.
Jim Courier
Flying has opened up new horizons for tennis.
Jim Courier
Hell be lucky to last five or six years on those knees. What it might have to come down to is playing less on hard surfaces and playing more on forgiving surfaces.
Jim Courier
Even the poor can be fat in the U.S. That says something about a country. That's how incredible what we have is. But it can also take away incentive.
Jim Courier

Jim Courier
There are certainly great cities in America that don't have ATP and WTA events. Our fans are very provincial. They want American champions.
Jim Courier
It's hard for anyone in the 24-hour news cycles that we all live in now to follow something that the first round is played in March and the final finishes in December. I understand the challenges there.
Jim Courier
The airplane has had a big impact on my life.
Jim Courier
You can kick a ball into the net, throw a basketball into the net. Tennis is complicated. It'll make a lot of great athletes run the other way because they can't be successful initially.
Jim Courier
I think all of us are shaped by the choices we make.
Jim Courier
You need to make sure everyone is healthy first and foremost.
Jim Courier
One of Nadal’s strengths is that he’s so humble, that he’s surprised at what he has achieved, and that he has never bought into his greatness.
Jim Courier
America is the world's policemen, whether you and I like that or not. That's a fact. People globally feel that.
Jim Courier
What separates the winners from the losers is that they can deal with doing their best while still coming up short.
Jim Courier
Focusing on one thing can be tough, and people with fewer options are more apt to concentrate on what they're doing. There's probably something to hunger.
