“Every match I go into, I’m the huge favorite. I lose a set and it’s, like, crazy.”

It’s not so simple to just stay in the moment and trust your game and your strength that you can turn it around.

I am a very positive thinker, and I think that is what helps me the most in difficult moments.

I definitely feel there’s room for improvement.

The serve, I think, is the most difficult, you know, in terms of coordination, because you got the two arms going, and you got to toss it up at the right time so.

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.

My favorite shot is always gonna be the forehand. It used to always be my favorite shot when I was young, so it’s the one I’ve won all the points with.

I feel a bit awkward playing in a red shirt out at Wimbledon. But I don’t dislike it.

You have to believe in the long term plan you have but you need the short term goals to motivate and inspire you.

I enjoyed the position I was in as a tennis player. I was to blame when I lost. I was to blame when I won. And I really like that, because I played soccer a lot too, and I couldn’t stand it when I had to blame it on the goalkeeper.

Mentally, I’m not ever going to go away.

Early in my career, I struggled with consistency, but I couldn’t get more consistent than this year.

I have two lives, and all the problems I might have, I feel like I drop them once I step on to the match court.

When you’re good at something, make that everything

It doesn’t need to be the same every day, doesn’t need to be the same shower I use, the same restaurant I go to, the same hour I go to sleep. I’ve always been very flexible. I don’t care if I practice at nine in the morning or 10 P.M.

I would so like to be Lenny Kravitz.

Being a husband is for me as big a priority as being a father.

My real name is Amethyst. It sounds like a stage name. My mom is kind of crazy.

It’s crazy because I have a scar on my right eyebrow, but people who don’t know me very well think that I just intentionally shave that part of it.

I haven’t been to rehab, I don’t do anything eccentric – I’m really boring.

When we see others beginning to live their authentic selves, it drives us crazy if we have not lived out our own.

On her daughter: And she’s going through all these changes. You know, it’s just crazy times.

Speaking English is like tongue-twist for me. I can speak each word perfect, but then you have to string them together like, ‘Blah, blah, blah.’ That’s when I get crazy.

It is about time we listen to our crazy young forgotten hearts.

My goal was never to be the loudest or the craziest. It was to be the most entertaining.
