We start a lot form Tom's feet at center back. Stefan takes over at the midfield and controls things from that point on. He's more or less the distribution source for everything.

Nicole Miller

When I was on my honeymoon, I lost use of my right arm and right leg, and that's when we knew something was wrong. I was not totally paralyzed, but there was loss of sensation and feeling.

Nikolay Davydenko

Today, it was my mistake because we had different balls (than were used in Montreal and Cincinnati). I tried to make it different, my tension for strings was harder here and I tried to make no mistakes because the tension was hard and I had more control. I tried to come back but at 6-5 broke my string. I took my old racket and I lost in the tiebreak. I played really slow, Chela played good today and tried to make winners, and for me, if I play slow I can beat nobody.

Her racket is actually fragile -- powerful but fragile,

Joe Tiller

He has more confidence and a working knowledge of the offense. Last year, each and every week out was a new experience for him. Last year, he was a little timid in the huddle. Now, he's more forceful.
