• I think I have handled things pretty well last year and this. What I have to do now is try do it even better.

• Whether it's in the right way or sometimes the wrong way, you learn about life and its lessons.
• Yes, I have had difficult times on court and at certain tournaments but you need to forget about it and go forward because that's the way it works in our world.
