I think it can. The powers that be, IMG, the ATP, need to work together more coherently.
It can work. Hopefully, we can find a way into some of the big events; a combination of places like Naples, as well as having an event at the U.S. Open or Wimbledon.
I felt like I had it in me, but I didn't know quite what was going to happen.
I think the U.S. Open was the best in many years, with (Andre) Agassi making the finals. The problem is accessibility. They need to improve on that part. They aren't making enough effort to show their personality. They have gone in the wrong direction for too long and need to improve.
If anyone's been listening to my commentary the past year then they know I'm in favor of using replay. I think it will make tennis more interesting.
I would be lying to you if said I'm not thinking about it.
Roddick is already feeling the heat because he took a step back this last year. There's no doubt that if (Federer) plays up to his capability, he's going to win it.
Most guys would like to play the guy they have the winning record against. That's what you love about Roger he embraces the challenge.
Well I think that's probably one of a few, where I grew up in the City of New York, it's got a lot of energy, my parents are Irish-American so there was a bit of yelling going on in my house but it seemed normal.
When I was 25, if you'd have said I was going to be a commentator, that would seem like, 'Oh, my God. That's a huge step down.'
I'd love to see a seniors event at U.S. Open in singles, not just hit-and-giggle doubles.
We've come this far so we might as well go all the way.
We are coming to play San Jose for one reason -- to win the SAP Open doubles title. Jonas and I are not doing this just for fun. We think that this will be great for the game of tennis.
When I was eight and a half, my parents moved to a part of Queens where there was a club nearby. We joined, and if you believe in someone up above, I think I was meant to play tennis.
