My results lately have not been what I expected. As I am not a tennis player at the beginning of his career I have to act quickly when I feel that I need a change.

It's been a very tough time for me, i've been really up and down. Just because of the love of the sport I was wanting to give Tomas Berdych one more try to come back and give it a good shot of preparation, come here and play some matches and go to the Open and see what it's like, what I'm going to do, how my tennis is going to be.

My game was good and the game plan was even better, it was a very good game. I need to keep going as there is still one more match to go. I want to go all the way.

I can talk with my partner about basically everything.... I can just completely switch off from the tennis, then once you step back on the tennis side, then you are absolutely focused (on) whatever you do... so for me, I think it's a great combination.

Whoever has played tennis knows the court is pretty big and you always have space to put the ball in.

big you always space

It's not so bad that I can't touch my toes. But I'm not one of the most flexible guys. When you look at Novak Djokovic, you'd probably think he's made of rubber.

bad look think you

Tennis players need to be very focused and very intense, and I can show tennis players are not just hitting the little yellow ball and moving in between the white lines. I'm always trying to show my personality outside of the court.

I do a lot of biking. I need that mileage and the long-distance stuff because tennis demands it. My fitness trainer is always trying to convince me to do an Ironman. I can probably run the marathon, I can make the 112 miles on the bike, but I will never swim for 2.4 miles. I will die after 100 meters.

The grass is a very big challenge for me. There are these low bounces and different movements, which is very difficult, especially for my height and weight. When the surfaces change, and I start to play on grass, I start to feel it in the lower back and the lower hamstring.

I think I can win a slam. That's my main goal, and if I could choose one, then yes, it would have to be Wimbledon. But, honestly, I would take any one of them.

It's always hard to find the best friends in the locker room because we are all competing against each other - but the real friends you are going to definitely find off the court because we are competitors in between.

I can see that the tennis for the fans could be a bit boring, and these days you have these new modern things which you can do, and you have a lot of time, because you just play a match, and practise, and many times in between you can bring many things to the fans.
