If I had to choose one man to play for my life, it would be Nadal.
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
Tennis doesn't encourage any kind of intellectual development.
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
The airplane has had a big impact on my life.
Jim Courier
I'm a big proponent of Hawk-Eye. I think it's a wonderful addition, not only for the players, but more importantly for the fans.
