I've got a great wife, a great life.
When you come back strong, you are going to have little nagging things that you can usually play through, but every now and again, it is to the point where you can't play.
There's always one shot that I can rely on when I'm not hitting the ball that well, is my serve.
Once the US Open is over in the States, mainstream America doesn't really follow tennis, unless you are a true tennis fan.
People watched the Masters. It was a huge event. It was at The Garden. Now that it is over here in Europe, it has lost a little bit of popularity in the States.
For so long people have just taken what I do for granted. It is not easy to do year-in, year-out, to win Grand Slams and be No. 1.
I'm not going to give in to the critics. I'm going to stop on my own terms, not on when someone else thinks I should.
Tennis obviously isn't as popular as baseball in the States.
The future is flying home. That's the immediate future. But long-distance future, I plan on being back. I'm not going to end my time here with that loss.
The way I hold the club, I've got my hand way over, like I'm driving a motorcycle. My Kawasaki grip.
There is no doubt about how hard it is to stay on top in any sport, but to do it in an individual sport for the majority of your career, it is not easy.
When you struggle winning matches all year and you don't really get into a groove or rhythm, you just can't expect to just come in here and have it click.
Where I fall down is my short game. I don't practice enough, and when I have to take a half swing from 50 yards out, that's trouble.
There should be more of an off-season in the game. I think you need to have less tournaments, more of a break at the end of the year so guys can recover.
That's not what I'm looking forward to, just being home and just kind of not really sure kind of what to do with myself.
When I tied the record five years in a row, even over in Europe, it wasn't really talked about. It is disap-pointing because it is one of the toughest things to do in sports.
Most of the time after the US Open, it is kind of like you are trying to finish strong. But to do it five years and maybe six is something that has never been done before, so it is a huge challenge.
Media access to us is more regulated than in golf.
I've been into golf, trying to get into the gym to stay somewhat fit. I've got two boys now, they're active kids.
I've always led a pretty simple life, with few extravagances. The money in tennis never drove me.
I want to end my career on my terms, not on what people think I should do.
I don't look at myself as a historical icon, but the reality of it is, yeah, I am playing for history now.
It's not my place to tell you whom to vote for, to take any political stand, to tell you what religion to believe in. I'm an athlete. I can influence certain things, but when I see other athletes and celebrities telling you whom to vote for, I actually get a bit offended.
I may be a step slower than I was before reaching 30, but I'm doing all the right things. I guess there are some guys who would take it easy in the latter part of their careers, but I'm stepping it up.
My goal one day is to be in the same sentence as Rod Laver and Ken Rosewall.
