Guy Forget Quotations

It's a tough world out there and all the guys are fighting hard and the competition is really tough.

If you win, fine, if you don't, you try again next year.

To be a professional tennis player you need to put in these sort of hours.

I retired because I had a knee injury, my cartilage was wearing out, it was painful and I couldn't put in the four hours of practice each day that I needed to.

If you lived the doubles, as I did, which was very stressful, you are sitting down in a chair experiencing a match without being able to hold a racquet in your hands.

I had a coach that was not a great player, but he taught with kids and juniors so that by the time he was 50 he was great. He helped me make the top 5 in the world and yet he wasn't a great player himself.

More than specific memories of achievements, for me I remember the feeling you get when you were just at your very best - when you felt like you were floating across the court and could put the ball wherever you wanted.

I think each player and myself live things differently because I have no physical effort to make.

You can be a little lonely because it's an individual sport.

When you are very little tennis should be fun, it should be a game.
