I let the evening unfold. I'm the sort of guy who likes to sit in the chair and look at the wine glass.

You always want to win. That is why you play tennis, because you love the sport and try to be the best you can at it.

It's just unreal, I'm shocked myself. I've played good matches here, but never really almost destroyed somebody.

Image
I think it's very hard for coaches to work with me. They'll no doubt have a good CV afterwards, but at the same time they're under a lot of pressure.

The nicer the point, the more -- the better I feel, the more excited I get. But I never play that my opponent looks stupid. I think that is wrong. I have too much respect for every opponent I play.

I was aware of how incredible the match was. Unfortunately there had to be a winner. From my point of view many left feeling sorry for me instead of being happy for Rafa. Which hurts.

It is always in my mind still that I can crush anybody. That's not an issue. But I think that is the same for most athletes. If you don't believe you can win tournaments anymore, then you can't do it.

I have a very strong opinion. I'm absolutely against it. I'm against the challenge system. I'm for the way it is right now. Don't change that.

You've never seen me dance, have you?

Previously I always thought it was just tactical and technique, but every match has become almost mental and physical - I try to push myself to move well. I try to push myself not to get upset and stay positive, and that's what my biggest improvement is over all those years. Under pressure I can see things very clear.

I used to do a lot of video analysis early on, but more for pleasure and looking at my own technique.

Maybe further down the road in my career, in a couple of years when I'm maybe not that fast any more around the court, then maybe it would be good to come to the net a little bit more often

The more I lose, the more they believe they can beat me. But believing is not enough, you still have to beat me.

Being down match point, it's just not fun.

When you do something best in life, you don't really want to give that up - and for me it's tennis.
Roger Federer
Image
You live during the match, and you have strong emotions, but you don't want to get too overexcited. My body's totally flat now. I cannot move anymore. I'm totally exhausted, just because of the tension out there.

One should just be able to play a perfect game.

I am thinking more and more about what I want to and can do after my days as an active athlete. Thoughts like family and marriage also cross my mind more and more often.
