Start Where You Are, Use What You Have.

If You're Paid Before You Walk On The Court, What's The Point In Playing As If Your Life Depended On It?

In America You're Conditioned To Regard Everything As A Contest. You Have To Make The Ten Best Dressed List, Win This, Win That. It Drives Me Nuts Sometimes. Who Cares, For Christ's Sake?

Some Folks Call Tennis A Rich People's Sport Or A White Person's Game. I Guess I Started Too Early Because I Just Thought It Was Something Fun To Do.

You've Got To Make A Lot Of Sacrifices And Spend A Lot Of Time If You Really Want To Achieve With This Sport, Or In Any Sport, Or In Anything Truly Worthwhile.
