With the time, as I was growing up and I got taller and my arms were longer, I developed this aggressive style because I think it was better for me, for my style of game.

It's difficult to always perform well, to always go on the court and win and hit great shots. It takes a lot of time and a long learning process.

I try to focus on more winning matches here and try to go forward rather than the ranking because is the first step, to win matches, getting far in tournament, and we see after.

I'm happy that once again I see myself winning a Grand Slam, something that is so hard to do.

I was lucky enough to play for the top three Italian clubs during the golden era of Italian football, so I have no regrets.

I was quite fat as a kid. And swimming is a sport you can enjoy whatever size you are. If you're fat, running is a pain. I'm not really built for running.

You can't just say, 'This team's going to win,' or 'This team's going to lose.' Anything can happen. So what you can control is winning your game as much as possible. If you don't do that, and then the other team has a chance to lose, and they lose, and you didn't go about it the right way, now you just let that slip.

The guys that are serious serious about football - your Peyton Mannings, your Tom Bradys - I'm not saying don't advertise or do endorsements dollars. But there's a time and a place for everything.
