In everything I've done, I always just hated to lose more than I like to win.

If my son is happy, then I am happy.

Being from North Carolina, it's kind of slow-paced. There's not too much going on there, whereas in New Orleans, there's always something going on. I just love all the people, going out to dinner and enjoying anything I want.

I love people. I hate to be by myself.

Tennis Canada nominated me a few years ago, and I did some research into it and realized it's one of the biggest honours you can have as a Canadian. I've seen the list of the people, and it's pretty special.

I like to smile. I try to bring happiness on and off the pitch. I don't understand how you can play football without joy.

It was football I enjoyed most. When I moved to L.A. to become a stand-up comedian, I thought it might be a good comedy hook to also be the punter for USFL club The L.A. Express, so I started practicing for the tryouts. Luckily, my stand-up took off, and I didn't need to do it.

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