Tennis Quotes

I don’t mind fans coming up in a friendly, respectful way. That’s all part of the fun of being a top tennis player. But if people take pictures without permission, particularly if my children are in the shot, I feel uncomfortable Picture Quote #1

After being on the court for six hours, being on TV is very glamorous and fun for me. But tennis is always going to be my priority. It’s not going to be this thing when all of a sudden TV will get in the way of that Picture Quote #1

It’s pretty hard being a tennis player and Mother Theresa at the same time and that’s just the way it is Picture Quote #1

I like playing tennis. I’ve always enjoyed the process of being a tennis player; I’m just not sure that I enjoyed the travel at the end, and my body didn’t recover from the day-to-day grind Picture Quote #1

I am happy with being a tennis player and the choice I took when I was 12. But clearly, if I wouldn’t have been a tennis player, I would have loved to be a soccer player. But again, I am happy with the choice I made Picture Quote #1

At the very beginning of my career, when I opened my business in Italy, I was also a ranked tennis player. I had won many tournaments. To be an athlete was my first choice. Second choice: designer. However! There was more money in being a designer at that time Picture Quote #1

I think that tennis has been in a place for many years without any change. Davis Cup and Fed Cup has always been a very exciting platform for players because it is such an individual sport, and we get to play a team competition. We love being part of a team Picture Quote #1

My tennis is aggressive, though I wouldn’t say that it’s more physical than technical. I rely more on technique than physique, but being physical is always a help to me Picture Quote #1

Fitness is defined differently by everyone, but for me, the most important thing is being healthy. As tennis players, what we do is not the healthiest thing. We almost abuse our bodies Picture Quote #1

If I’m being honest, I think I’d be good at television; I just don’t know if I am interested, because you are kind of geographically responsible to a location, and frankly I don’t know if I retired from tennis so that I could sit around tennis tournaments 12 hours a day Picture Quote #1

When I’ve written episodes of ‘Doctor Who’, when it comes to the monster chasing somebody, it’s the Doctor and the companion, running down the corridor, being chased by a guy with a stick and a tennis ball on the end. Whereas, when I see the rushes of ‘Being Human’, we’re actually looking at the werewolf, and it just looks real Picture Quote #1

My message is to get human beings to love God, love their neighbor and for the life of me I just don’t see the downside of human beings not being so mean to one another and actually care for one another and not steal from one another and not murder each other for their tennis shoes. That’s the message I have Picture Quote #1

If you go out eight times and play tennis eight times this week, yeah, it’s the same rules, but it’s a different game every time you’re out on that court. You’re working on a different part of your game every time you’re out on that court; your partner’s working on a different part of their game, and the act of being watched changes it Picture Quote #1

You can equate acting to a tennis game: When you’re playing one of the best, you get better Picture Quote #1

When you do something best in life, you don’t really want to give that up - and for me it’s tennis Picture Quote #1

It’s very important to take tennis to the people. For young people, they get to see the best in the world Picture Quote #1

Tennis has always been a big challenge to me and to be able to play that kind of tennis - well, only tennis can produce these feelings for me Picture Quote #1

I’m a big fan of curling, follow all the major world events. Watch all four Tennis majors Picture Quote #1

Having been away from competitive tennis for a while, I am looking forward immensely to getting back on the circuit ... I am looking forward to playing the Big Girls. People have had expectations from me even when I was 10 years old. I try to switch off but you are right, it isn’t always easy to do that because the expectations are really mounting Picture Quote #1

Once in a while I’ll get moved to do some exercise. It’s something I long for but the biggest problem is bending down and putting my tennis shoes on. Once I go out I’m OK Picture Quote #1

Tennis legend Bjorn Borg appeared in a Swedish TV ad urging Swedes to have more sex to solve the country’s falling birth rate. America can help. This is a perfect opportunity to name Jesse Jackson ambassador to Sweden Picture Quote #1

Team sports, there’s always some kind of sacrifice happening... A team, if we lose, if Michael Jordan has a bad night, you hang it on him a little bit... but if you lose as a tennis player, you have no one to blame but yourself, and that’s a different beast Picture Quote #1

Well, immediately we announced yesterday or the day before we’re building, with my foundation, a youth tennis and learning center in Austin. I’d like to be hands on with that and not see it periodically Picture Quote #1
