I think it'll be tough to beat him here this week. |
I think the field is pretty good here, |
I thought I might get hit by a car. |
I thought that was kind of it for me. |
I was ranked No. 2 in the world and then I was out for 15 months between my shoulder surgery and my parents getting in a motorcycle accident in 2002, |
I wasn't able to train very much but that's no excuse. |
I wasn't able to train very much but that's no excuse. I've got to try to forget this match fast but it won't be easy. |
I'm a little tired, but I'm on a high being in the final, |
I'm happy that I won in two sets. It's a psychological boost to know that you could do it in straight sets. |
I'm just really happy that I'm winning some of the big points. You have to believe in yourself and stick to your things. |
I'm not surprised that I didn't feel 100 per cent, |
I'm playing really good, really confident. Maybe I will win the first title of my career here. |
I'm slowly getting back into things and the shoulder is holding up. If I play to this level I know I can do well here, |
I'm sorry I can't compete tonight. I was feeling pain every time I hit the ball and therefore you can't really compete at this level, so it's unfortunate for me. |
If you think there might be a chance that you can't play pro tennis ever again, you relish good tennis. You appreciate the times when you play good tennis, ... Right now, James is appreciating his health and his tennis game. |
