In the past, my family made a lot of sacrifices. We never got to spend much time together because I was always training. I think now I need to spend as much time as I can with them. This is the life I should have.

I have never considered any player as my competitor; each one of them is good and talented, and my job is to beat them.

It is difficult to single out any one player, as I aim to give my best against every single player that I have played so far against.

If you play a match, then you got to give it all to beat the opponent; there is nothing like playing against a great or a non-great player. I treat them all as opponents and aim to beat them.

Whenever I am not traveling during the winter, I am pushing hard in the gym. Even when I am traveling, I try to fit a workout in at the hotel. And if the hotel doesn't have a gym? You can get a good workout in your room with an exercise band and some imagination.

I feel better if I exercise and eat healthily.

It's almost impossible to have a constructive conversation about health-care reform in Arkansas without passions rising and folks taking sides.

The Revlon Run/Walk effort to focus on women's cancer has my wholehearted support and gratitude.
