Tennis is an international sport. It's a challenge getting to know each person's culture and learning how to motivate each player. Our diversity adds a different dimension or level, and that can that can be positive.
Jill Breslin
We did this study to see what is the economic impact in sports, with baseball in mind. While baseball is a good money generator, the surprise of this report is the biggest money raiser seems to be golf and tennis events.
Rep. Nancy Detert
The doubles point is always big. To come back from that far down … it's unheard of for fast indoor tennis.
Michael Starke
Andy is not playing his best tennis. Fernando has improved very much. I think he played his best match of the year (on Friday). I think the tie is still open. If Fernando plays his best tennis and Andy makes some mistakes, doesn't hit the ball well … Fernando can do some damage.
Hans Gildemeister
Instant replay is going to be awesome. For too long, tennis has been stuck in its traditions, which is part of its strength as a game. But you have to be able to change some things and get fans interested.
Patrick Mcenroe
I think our community programs have been extraordinary. Our after-school and summer programs have been very successful, and they really help grow the game in our communities. We've been blessed with great instructors, and I think that in teaching tennis to our youth, we're also promoting education, developing citizenship and building future friendships and relationships.
Helen Moser Petersen
The only thing I had on my mind was tennis, and sometimes girls, ... My life was all about tennis. My office was the whole world. The word home didn't really exist.
Boris Becker
Her goal is to play as well as she can at state and see where that takes her. With every match, she's improved and played her best tennis of the season at sectionals. She has the experience and determination to let loose and see what she can do.
Nich Schafer
My first taste of it was 9 years of age. Obviously, (I dealt with it) the day I was born because of the color of my skin, but my first real taste of it had nothing to do with tennis. It was sitting in the back of the bus.
Lenny Simpson
Right now, I'm very fortunate I'm making my living being a professional, and everything else that has happened in my career. But one day it's going to be all taken away, and I'm still going to play tennis because I love it.
Monica Seles
Like a perfect tennis serve, a perfect golf swing or a perfect omelet, a perfect resume takes more effort than simply copying what others do.
Tom Jackson
Alicia played exceptionally well against a very good tennis player.
David Lipe
It was a good day of tennis for us. We played in a very competitive tournament and played pretty well.
Travis Hermstein

Amelie Mauresmo
He?s a great player. He played very good from the baseline, so what I have to do is attack and play my tennis, which is serve and volley a little bit and try to move him from the baseline.
Feliciano Lopez
Stop trying to treat music like it's a tennis shoe, something to be branded. If the music industry wants to save money, they should take a look at some of their six-figure executive expense accounts. All those lawsuits can't be cheap, either.
Jeff Tweedy
The thing about tennis is even though you play as an individual, you still have to work as a team to win.
John Blackburn
Manufacturers want tennis racquets and golf club shafts to be light and stiff, but without the annoying sting that comes from a bad shot.
Nikhil Koratkar
Tennis is a funny game, and this is true of any team in the district. Unless you have the rare luxury of extra players, you play in order of rank. He makes everybody better play one position lower. One person makes everybody on the team stronger.
Bob Nutting
He really played some of his test tennis in that last match.
Dave Weisfeldt
Table tennis is sanctioned as a national tournament for the U.S. Table Tennis Association and right now we have about 140 table tennis players coming in from all over the States.
Jeff Collins
After (the first set), he played pretty high quality tennis. He just couldn't hold down the match.
Peter Wright
As we keep improving, we'll get better players as we start to put Penn tennis on the map.
Jason Pinsky
We've got the No. 1 team in the country here under an atypical San Diego environment. We've got people in San Diego who wake up in the morning and they go to Cardiff, they go to Swamis, they go to the Seaside Market, they hang out, they go jogging or they go play tennis. They're doing all these things, but now we've got a sold-out environment for baseball.
Rich Hill
I'd like to imagine that in order to beat me a person would have to play almost perfect tennis.
Venus Williams
James Blake's playing tennis for the right reasons. He's playing to have fun and to find out about himself, not to win the U.S. Open.
Mats Wilander
As a human, to just buy him a dirty old tennis ball is just not enough, even though he doesn't care. I feel better because I've given him something more than just a tennis ball.
Bob Vetere
It will be good for Chinese tennis.
Ryan Zimmerman
We'll have hundreds more people using our parks, our clubhouse, our tennis courts, and our walking trails. That's wear and tear that wasn't projected.
Patti Rizzi
Andy is not playing his best tennis. Fernando has improved very much. I think he played yesterday the best match of the year. I think he has confidence against Andy tomorrow. I think the tie is still open...Fernando can do some damage. In the fifth [match], anything can happen. Nicolas [Massu], he's special for that. I don't know about how [James] Blake is going to react playing the fifth match.
Hans Gildemeister
I haven't played a set like that in two years and I pretty much haven't played tennis like that. I guess the shoulder got fatigued and then it strained a little bit. It's just bad luck.
Alexandra Stevenson
It's definitely her dedication and her passion for it. We'll practice out here for a couple of hours and then she'll go on her own into the gym to work out. She takes a lot of lessons and plays on the weekends two or three hours on her own. She eats, breathes and sleeps tennis, really. You can see it in the way she plays.
Jason Blazek
Tennis is an absolute nightmare because we don't have facilities. Our home courts are at the University of Richmond. We're limited in time and space.
Paige Hawkins
I think that tennis is a lady's sport, so we should look out there like ladies.
Anna Kournikova
I always love her game, she was kind of my idol before. (But) I just have to play tennis, and I did.
Tszvetana Pironkova
If you can react the same way to winning and losing, that's a big accomplishment. That quality is important because it stays with you the rest of your life, and there's going to be a life after tennis that's a lot longer than your tennis life.
Chris Evert
He coached women's tennis at Penn State and knows the tennis scene real well.
Larry Tobin
It's not an easy decision because tennis has been my life. But I've taken this decision with my head not with my heart. I think I have to be happy because from now on I will be able to dedicate my time to other things.
Conchita Martinez
She transcends the sport. She transcends the sport, and growth in our sport is not coming from tennis fans. It's coming from entertainment fans. And because Maria transcends the sports pages, she's drawing new people to the sport.
Stacey Allaster
Tennis is a psychological sport, you have to keep a clear head. That is why I stopped playing.
Boris Becker
Actors need bricks to play with, and in fact we rejected all the improvised fragments we had made without a plan. Improvisation without a plan is like tennis without tennis balls.
Lars Von Trier
Robert loves to play tennis and plans to play often at the tennis courts, and we both love to spend time with our grandchildren.
Harriet Stein
He is a good guy and he works very hard. He wants to be a tennis player and I think he has shown he has the talent.
Andy Murray
We wanted to place in the top four, but the conference this year is just so unbelievably tough. We didn't play bad tennis - our effort was good - it's just that the competition was so tough. Everyone would have had to win one more match for us to be in the top four. It was a tough day.
Shawn Seiler
It's going to be very tough for me. I've never beaten her and she's full of confidence as this is her second final in two weeks. I'm going to have to play my best tennis for sure.
Mara Santangelo
The best days to see the most tennis will be Friday through Sunday.
Brian Wyrick
After four matches, I felt tired, but that's tennis. I should have been ready.
Lucie Safarova
She's definitely competitive. I never have to say 'I doubt you want to win this set'. ... But there is such a fine line in tennis between the anger and the excitement, and we talk about that line all the time. She can't cross over to that anger (side), because then she starts playing worse.
Jane Burke
Don't do extra biking, swimming, tennis, to replace what you are not walking or running. You really need to rest the body.
Heather Hedrick
[Nick] knew coming in that he was going to be surrounded by a tremendous group of experienced and talented players. I think his goal all along with that was to just take advantage of that and see how good of a tennis player he could become.
Brian Boland
This feels so good because doctors said I might not be as good as I used to be. But I'm playing the best tennis I've ever played.
Annie Houghton
Women's tennis has been all over the place the last few years and when you throw in injuries, it's taken on even more of a wild-card dimension.
Pam Shriver
I thought I was going to be a tennis player when I was a boy. I had a coach and everything and played in some junior tournaments. I was pretty good, but it is too many hours playing tennis. I didn't like it that much. I was lazy.
Adolfo Cambiaso
We are not familiar with their players names from Junior Tennis competition. But we are looking forward to the challenge of making it five wins in a row.
Penny Dean
This decision, it was something that was hard for both of us, but we both realized that this was the best thing for Andy's tennis right now. There are certain coaches that are better in certain stages (of a player's career), so I think that as a player you have to figure out which coach is going to be best for you where you are at that moment.
Dean Goldfine
Tennis is a great game that you can play your whole life. I don't know why more people don't just go out and try it.
Jeswin Jolly
One of the reasons I'm here is to help him relax and enjoy tennis. Andy has a lot of energy and you have to get that energy out.
John Roddick
I wouldn't say that it was easy. I would say we all played great tennis with great energy and that made it look a lot easier.
Diana Srebrovic
As a fairly high-skilled tennis player for all the years he has been playing, he has never been penalized a point for inappropriate behavior on the court. He is always respectful of his opponent even when sometimes his opponent may not be as respectful of him.
Rob Audette
All of the girls played with heart. They are such a young team and not once have they had a blow out match. All of them are playing tough tennis and I am so pleased.
Matt Meredith
If you want to compete, take up tennis. This type of thing is just not something you need to compete with. It's about having fun.
Sheperd Paine
At the camp I had experience coaching team tennis.
Alex Spence
It's a testament to the depth in men's tennis these days.
Jeff Morrison
I'm trying to get them to play the way that they can so that when we get into the Big East they'll be playing good tennis.
Mac Gifford
These guys, especially Massu, Is capable of superhuman feats in terms of being able to be out on the court a ridiculous amount of time and coming back the next day and playing great tennis.
Dean Goldfine
We have gotten off to an incredible start this season. Everyone has been playing great tennis, especially against the top teams in the country like Duke and Texas. But rankings don't mean anything if you're not playing great tennis. If you're having an off day, any team you play will take advantage.
Kelly Nelson
Top Spin gives tennis fans and gamers a tennis experience to celebrate with stunning visuals and all of the top pros. PlayStation 2 owners now have access to the most critically acclaimed tennis series on the market.
Greg Thomas
We're following the evolution of tennis in general a little bit.
Stephane Simean
I'm very honored that fans voted for me for this award. Although very flattering, I know that all these awards are ultimately based upon my tennis results, and therefore I am very pleased to be receiving them.
Ana Ivanovic
After high school this year, I'd like to go to Florida or maybe FSU. Maybe I can try out for the team. I know I'd really like to keep playing tennis.
Dewald Steinman
We all became better tennis players today. It's quite an opportunity to play against a schools of this size and know that we can compete.
Randy Juley
My calendar here is full. I have two or three things every day. Softball, swimming, tennis, basketball. I go back to Maine in the summers and the only thing I have on my calendar is a couple of doctor's appointments.
Doug Springer
He's out of danger right now, that's the No. 1 thing. He will walk again, he will run again and play tennis again. That's what we hear from the doctors.
Martin Laurendeau
I think it's important to convey to the kids that you don't have to come from a family that's got all the things to start being a tennis player. It's very simple as long as you have the will and certain things in place.
Monica Seles
The guys that are on this team have put a lot of time and money into this sport, and they didn't want to give it up. These are boys who just like to go out there and play tennis. I hope their attitude rubs off on the younger players in town.
Gary Wagher
It's a lot easier for me to play tennis than it is for baseball because I picked baseball up after not playing for a year. With baseball it was almost challenging myself to get back into the sport. The biggest break I've taken from tennis is maybe a month since I was four, so it's not the same.
Curt Wheeler
It doesn't matter who they are, we play our solid tennis. We need to play at our level of tennis. There is no up and down. They are the same team as anyone. We play one team or another - it's all the same.
Stephanie Deneau
It was like bulls banging heads. He brought out the best and the worst in me and I like to think I did the same with him. Jimmy is one of the greatest players that ever lived, in my opinion. He's like the Pete Rose of tennis. I never seen a guy try as hard as this person on a tennis court. That's something I really respected.
Jimmy Connors
This is a special schedule for spring break, and we won't hold any regular classes during that time so we can focus all of our attention on the tennis campers.
Shelley Abraham
I have the feeling that something is missing in my game to win important matches, a certain kind of drive or motivation. I think I enjoy tennis more than ever, but this is not enough.
Magdalena Maleeva
The guys played solid tennis today. The wind was definitely a factor again today as it was blowing from baseline to baseline. You had to make an adjustment at every change over.
Lee Matthews
[The US Open may be the biggest tennis tournament in America, but both Israeli women shrug it off as just another competition that does not require special preparation.] Every tournament I train the same, ... No matter if it's Wimbledon, the US Open, or Forest Hills you train the same.
Anna Smashnova
Obviously, guys have had some success, if they're playing college tennis, ... But the first event is always an eye-opener.
Steve Houghton
When I looked at the men's draw, I thought, 'This draw was much better than we ever expected to get in men's tennis the week before the grand slam'. Would we like to have Federer, Agassi and Roddick here? Of course, but it is not feasible. We have been honest from the get-go they wouldn't be here, but you can't stop people from hoping.
Anne Worcester
Yesterday I was on the court with Roger Federer, so I can bring something like that or a conversation I had with him to this clinic. I communicate that to players here in Montana and then they're a little bit closer to the top of the game and what big time players are thinking about what it takes to become a better tennis player.
Luke Jensen
We are playing good tennis right now. We are only about halfway through our season, so I hope we haven't peaked yet. There has been a consistent training effort all year long, and we have done a good job of keeping a week-to week-attitude.
Michael Center
Crystallizing my feelings about the game, I find that squash is less frustrating than golf, less fickle than tennis.
John Hopkins
There was endless action - not just football, but sailboats, tennis and other things: movement. There was endless talk - the ambassador at the head of the table laying out the prevailing wisdom, but everyone else weighing in with their opinions and taking part.
Charles Spalding
He has our best record in league this year and he's playing within himself. He's not trying to over-hit and he's being consistent. At this level, consistency wins matches. He's just playing better tennis.
Tom Lonergan
Compared to tennis, the points are a little longer, so the game develops more. In doubles on the men's pro tour, the game is about 80 percent offense, whereas in beach tennis it's about 50-50.
Phil Whitesell
They are not tennis players. They came from soccer. Those (are) No. 3, 4 and 5 spots, so I really don't have that classic (tennis team). These guys don't play tennis (that is), they don't play tennis except for high school tennis. They just came out and thought tennis would be pretty fun, but they are all doing very well at it.
Joe Dickson
It played two paced, some balls went through and some lagged like a tennis bounce.
Dwayne Smith
I actually just picked (tennis) up. It's definitely not my background, but there weren't a lot of offers to take the job.
Heather Davis
She had a lot of passion for tennis. She really wanted the opportunity to come to the United States and play college tennis and at the same time get a good education.
Sujay Lama
I like it here a lot. The people are so nice and it's a great tennis town. You'll see me again.
Sam Warburg
I never saw a bad side in the guy, ... He played tennis for us. Played basketball, too. ... I know his parents aren't like that.
Jerry Anderson
We're talking about a canopy for bus loading, lighted tennis courts, some specific things about some high-impact drywall and leveling the floor in the band and choral room.
Bill Wiese
I felt I was going to get beat when I was down a set and a break, ... But somehow I got into a third set, and picked up my standard of tennis.
Wesley Moodie
If you're top 10 in the world, it's not like you are going to be a slosh on a hard court, ... I knew I'd have to come out there and play my best tennis, and fortunately, I did.
Brian Baker
The loss against Illinois was one of the most incredible atmospheres for college tennis. I think that's something we can have here [today]. It's an opportunity for the community to get out and support us against one of the top teams in the country.
Brian Boland
The break in the third set changed the complexion of things. With the crowd behind him, he's playing confident tennis.
Tommy Haas
When I first started, [it was like] your career was that of a tennis player - you're done by 25, ... So, the bar has been raised and I'm very happy about that. And the fact that I'm performing better than ever - that's what I call ambitious.
David Coverdale
Nick worked on his game a lot in a tennis club. He'll definitely help us this season. Any time you have a No. 1 player like that, it really enhances your team. It gives us a weapon at No. 1 and it makes us a lot stronger down the lineup.
Bob Kummer
There aren't too many country clubs around here, but we did have a few girls play at the Drake camp. We're mostly in-season players. They're awesome girls; they're good students and they're coming around as tennis players.
Heather Davis
We help the kids that have a lot of talent but limited finances. Our goal is to use tennis as a way to help kids get college scholarships, while keeping them occupied in a sport that teaches them the lessons of life. You have to love what you do, and that rubs off on the kids and then they get inspired. I don't deserve an award, I am having the time of my life.
Ryan Wolfington
When you play a tough schedule, times like this are a way of life. But the chance to beat the best is part of why kids come here to play tennis. We have to get used to it.
Lou Belken
I had no idea he had the interesting life he had after tennis.
Nancy Kriplen
I was very, very shy as a younger girl, just petrified of people. Tennis helped give me an identity and made me feel like somebody.
Chris Evert
Our 2005 player field will feature the perfect blend of both solid veterans and rising stars. This year, fans will be able to see some of the most exciting players in women's tennis today.
Robin Reynolds
He's a good tennis player, but he is also a great person. He's done anything that has been asked of him. I couldn't be happier he is going to be my son-in-law.
Robert Cox
What is the single most important quality in a tennis champion? I would have to say desire, staying in there and winning matches when you are not playing that well.
John Mcenroe
It's just a great feeling. I think we both played amazing tennis. He came up with some great shots on my match points, and all the important points he played really well. I'm really happy to get through this one.
Robin Soderling
She went wheelchair skiing in Tahoe. She's very into wheelchair athletics. She went to some out-of-state tournaments in Florida ... and her foster mom said she's going to start taking tennis lessons.
Steve Hiltz
I just plan my whole life thinking about tennis. I don't want to have any regrets. As long as I feel that I can resist the guys, I'm happy to be there.
Fabrice Santoro
I was not far from my best tennis today. I'm really happy with my win and with the way I got it.
Arnaud Clement
Kim really believes in her chances, provided her recovery is going according to schedule, and that her first training sessions don't cause her problems either. Quite logically she would rather play for her home audience and distribute the champagne herself and in tennis clothing, than just passing by.
Bob Verbeeck
It's hard not to be concerned about the way we're playing. I don't think we're playing our best tennis.
Jody Bronson
From my own personal view, we're not talking about somebody playing tennis with a partner. We're talking someone schooling someone else on our tennis courts.
John Brickley
Everything is in front of tennis in my country. They don't respect it in a way the rest of the world does. It's a sad thing. But in the last year and a half we have made something really special for Serbia by having six players in the top hundred [including two girls].
Novak Djokovic
It's a pity some players couldn't come because of injuries. But the level of tennis we witnessed was very high.
Richard Krajicek
When I'm at home I hardly ever bother with alcohol and I play a lot of tennis at my local club.
Rod Argent
I was really pleased with my game today, I was hitting the ball really well. I think I'm playing good tennis at the moment, so I'm hopeful for the next matches.
Ana Ivanovic
I found a lot of other people who were interested in creating a greater tennis presence in Hamilton County. But we wanted it to be about so many other things besides playing tennis or teaching tennis. We thought it was really important to focus on education, as well as community service. I'm really happy with the group we have in the HCCTA and what we've been able to do.
Helen Moser Petersen
They're just a real young pair, both sophomores, and they've never played varsity tennis before. They went out and played excellent. Willis was older and more experienced, but they kept their game intact. It shows how determined they are to win and get better.
Matt Rhidenour
I always loved her game. When I go on court, I should not think about that. I just have to play tennis, and I did. I can say truly I did my best today.
Tszvetana Pironkova
In South Korea, short-track speed skating is the popular sport, just like the table tennis in China. The level of its young skaters is much higher than the youth in China, where the sport is only practiced in two provinces with about 300 registered skaters.
Tong Lixin
It's the kind of tennis I want to play. I felt like I was really aggressive and yet I could move well. I was consistent, hitting the ball hard. I'm very excited about that.
Lindsay Davenport
Normally I like to get kids that are a little bit younger, but here we're under a gun. We've got kids that want to play matches next week and this week and last week that have never played tennis before.
Chris Gannon
It is sad because Australian tennis fans have come to love Kim and I think we will continue to, just as we do with Lleyton.
John Alexander
We talked a little about that. One thing they don't utilize are those lower tennis courts. There's a lot of room down there, and there seems to be enough room for a good TV compound.
Michael Bodney
Pasquotank is a quality tennis team. If they don't win the conference, they're certainly deserving of a wild card into the state playoffs. I was very pleased with our play. We played them a lot tougher than we did at home last month, especially in doubles.
Vic Ramsey
I'm really happy with my game, especially with the kind of conditions we had today. The wind wasn't as strong as it has been but it was changing direction all the time and it was really difficult to play beautiful tennis. You just had to hang in there.
Vera Zvonareva
It is a concern. The only weekend that we were able to get Nameless Field was next weekend [April 15]; because of all the tennis tournaments that have been going on we couldn't have the noise. So it is a concern for us because we know that a lot of the student body is not going to be here that normally would be here.
Nicole Numbers
I think it's one of my best matches in my life. I'm just in my own world and playing my best tennis and having the crowd here supporting me is great.
Marcos Baghdatis
(The ATP) goes in and say 'We're going to change the rules of tennis,' ... The ITF is not going to change it...We need to do more research. And we just need to talk positive about the doubles.
Jonas Bjorkman
Kristi Jacobson is undefeated, ... We had a very focused and successful week of tennis.
John Harris
With the speed and power of today's game, the time has come for tennis to benefit from new technology, while adding to the fan experience.
Arlen Kantarian
[But the tennis association wouldn't -- and didn't -- do it that way.] We decided both quarterfinals should be in Ashe, as we have before, ... Both delivered on drama. They're top names and both matches were epics.
David Newman
We're the guinea pig, which we're happy to do. I've got to believe the players are going to love this. You'd like to have a situation where you're not going to lose a tennis match because of a bad call.
Butch Buchholz
Bill was someone who had been around the program and knew how things were done in the tennis program under Kirk. He wants to continue it among the same lines, which is what we were really looking for in a coach.
Clyde Metcalf
Joey has been to every practice from Day One. He is a Division I prospect and his career is definitely more important than playing high school tennis. I told him to let his body be your guide. He really wants to play, though.
Susie Luten
She's great for the game. She has that combination of glamour and hard work ethic, ... I think her motives are pure as far as, it means more to her to win tennis tournaments than to be on the cover of a magazine.
Chris Evert
That's the best match I've seen Ben play in his West Lafayette career. He's had a lot of good ones. Zach has the total package. Ben did a nice job of playing high percentage tennis and attacking when he had the opportunities.
Tom Wright
It was a really tough match for me even though she hadn't played the last few months. Today was great. It's good for my head. ... I didn't know what to expect. I was just thinking she was going to play great tennis. You could tell between points, and even during points, she had time off.
Gisela Dulko
No, that has nothing to do with Paul's decision. Paul has done a fabulous job at Tennis Australia over 12 great years. He's decided the time is right now.
Steve Wood
Having played Leconte, now I have a chance to play Pat Cash (for the first time). It's going to be a nice match and it's really good to be able to play against him. It's a new experience for me. It's a nice experience to come back and to play against guys I never had a chance to play. They have all made tennis history and it's pretty fun to be back.
Marcelo Rios
He played tennis, so I played tennis, too. I had a bit of an aptitude for it, so it was kind of fun.
Richie Redfern
We saw them in the fall; they are a pretty solid team. They have people who can play at every spot. We are definitely going to need to come out and play solid tennis to beat them.
Chuck Merzbacher
In these days of modern tennis a player is as strong as his weakest stroke.
Bill Tilden
I never thought I could get a state title in baseball and somehow not get one in tennis. After the season ended, I thought, heck I'll end my baseball career with a state championship and go back to tennis and see if I can duplicate that.
Curt Wheeler
For our first time out, I thought we played some good tennis. We played hard and came up short on those tie-breakers against Rapid City Central.
Dana Trumm
He's just an incredible tennis player - he's really great at doubles and we're best friends, so we meshed pretty well on the court.
Brandon Davis
I think it's exciting times in Australian tennis right now.
Tony Roche
The kids are nice kids. They're not overpowering tennis players, but they show promise.
Ned Kramer
For the moment, at least on the fitness side, I'm getting really close to peak. And on the tennis side, I just want to get better every day and I'm not thinking about that. I just want to enjoy it and hit some balls.
Nathalie Dechy
These girls play tennis first and foremost, the fact that many of them are very glamorous is a major bonus for any promoter.
John V. Lindsay
Claudia and Carmen played great. They played really clean, simple tennis. And I think this week Carmen played the best doubles she's ever played before.
Nils Schyllander
I've been waiting for a project that grabbed my attention and this is it. The DVD will reflect the attitude and passion that I put into the way I played tennis.
Jimmy Connors
There is not a lot of goofing around at practices and they all want to improve their tennis game.
Bill Stanley
I don't think she'll [Venus Williams] be around for a very long time. I doubt it will be a long career for her. She can make a lot more money out of (tennis) rather than in tennis."
Richard Williams
I think it is only a matter of time before that happens. I think some of the other guys who aren't exactly household names in tennis, but everybody is under 23. The Bryan Brothers (Mike and Bob) have done a lot to try to promote doubles, promote Davis Cup.
Mardy Fish
The majority of my life has revolved around my tennis, so it is a very special honor to be elected ... especially when you look at all the great names of champions that have been elected over the years.
Gabriela Sabatini
Andy was kind of the hot kid coming in here, ... It's a bummer for the tournament that he lost, but that's men's tennis. Unfortunately, it's just so deep.
Taylor Dent
Chennai Open has developed as a major event in the tennis circuit. Players will get opportunity to prepare for the first Grand Slam of the year, the Australia Open. It is a perfect stadium. So, I think Chennai Open will develop into a wonderful event.
Vijay Amritraj
All in all, the men's tennis team practices anywhere from five to 20 hours each week, but never more than 20.
Chris Powers
This unique racquet is symbolic of professional tennis' return to Las Vegas. It represents both the excitement and sizzle of the city and the great tennis fans will see at The Tennis Channel Open presented by Panasonic, the newest gem on the professional tennis circuit.
Steve Bellamy
I'm a tennis freak, and I'm not afraid to tell nobody that. I love to play.
Justin Martin
You've got a competitive reel between the three of them that's larger than tennis. Every sport wants to see their star players expand beyond their game because then you're reaching a larger market.
Michael Downey
I think the facility provided the Tennis Channel and the players a fabulous place. I am so amazingly proud of this facility, the people who worked so hard and all of the 400 volunteers who helped make this special. People were amazed when I told them this was a municipal facility.
Sandy Foley
Give a lot of credit to Maryland. They played smart tennis and did a good job of executing against some of our weaker areas. Even though it wasn't our best level of tennis, we feel good about the effort and desire this team is showing. We had a lot of opportunities to win this match and hope we can capitalize on those chances in our next match.
Troy Porco
Cardio tennis is great. It is great for the sport but, most important, it is great for the player. It is fun, players can get fit and they can improve their game too.
Luke Jensen
Tennis doesn't encourage any kind of intellectual development.
Jim Courier
It's very tough to say (which is my favorite). My goal in both tennis and golf is to play in college, so whichever way I go I'm happy.
Jarret Fisher
Sometimes these kids haven't had exposure to tennis, so I'm trying to bring them into it a little quicker with things they are more familiar with. Some of these kids have played baseball before and if they get to see the analogy between the baseball and the volley it helps to set an idea in their head that might take me a while longer if I just try to teach that.
Chris Gannon
He's been around for a long time now, and people who are not even diehard tennis fans certainly know who he is. He's done well for his endorsers. He's got enough activity and desire to stay in the public eye. He's got an image, he's likable and people have an affinity for him.
Jim Andrews
It was really intense. The crowd was really into it. Both teams played a high level of tennis.
Judy Rezatto
It's possible to get two sports coaches (tennis, basketball, baseball, cricket etc) with the same qualifications, approximately the same age and same ability but one is twice as busy as the other.
Serena Greenslade
We knew that he'd have some tough competition last week. But the tennis he played was beneficial. He'll have another tough match (today), but he usually rises to the occasion of his competition.
Robb Audette
I am working on every aspect of of my game, on moving forward, on my transition game. Also a very important part of my tennis is fitness. I want to be stronger, because in the past, this was my biggest weakness.
Jelena Jankovic
Plenty of credit should go to Allison and Crystal for getting a high seed in their first year of tennis. Right now, they are good athletes playing tennis and rapidly improving their skills.
Norm Sedig
Her goal is to be a champion tennis player. She's a former No. 1 junior player in the world. She continues at age 21 to grow on the WTA tennis tournament. She's 100 percent committed to her tennis. That is her first priority.
David Schwab
It seems like we've had just as tough a match at second singles as first all year. He's going up against guys that have been taking professional lessons longer than he's been playing tennis. But he's really held up his end of the deal. I expect him to go a long way.
Mark Mathias
I thought Jasper competed very well. And I thought we did OK. With sectional starting (today), we need to come out focused every day on playing 'A' tennis.
Patrick Miller
Certainly it's a juggling act when it comes to scheduling tennis. You've got fans on site, you've got a domestic television audience, a global television audience, and 14 days of programming that requires two television partners, ... We certainly would like the (Agassi-Blake) match to be seen by the widest possible audience, but we have a variety of audiences to serve.
David Newman
Three of the teams have never played tennis before in their lives. I think we're going to get better cause they're pretty good athletes. Put a basketball in their hands and they'll do great. It's going to get better, though.
Tom Lonergan
I'm convinced that Agassi is committed and excited to challenge for the biggest titles in the tennis world for as long as his body enables him to, and I suggest we all embrace him along the way. He is the best ambassador this sport will ever have.
Justin Gimelstob
For some of them it's actually their first tennis experience.
Doug Dexheimer
I was a little nervous in the beginning. And then when I sat down for the break between the sets, I said to myself, 'It's O.K. You are here in the Vodafone Arena, this big court. You need to show some tennis to the audience. Just relax and play your game.' And that happened.
Tszvetana Pironkova
My challenge to them was to be better tennis players at 5:30 in the afternoon than they were at 3:30 in the afternoon.
