Whether it's a friendly match, or for points, or a final, or any game - I play the same. I'm always trying to be my best, first for my team, for myself, for the fans, and to try and win.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I try to play like I did when I was a young boy playing in my garden. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not so good, but I try to always make sure I give my best to help the team, even if I am not having the best game myself.
I love to set up my teammates. I am not here to be a star, to show off. I am here to play for the others, but if I have to try and clinch a game, then I will.
I just go out there every game and try to be the best I can be for our team.
I have good anticipation, and good reaction to the the ball because I've played so many matches in my life.
My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match. However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into victories.
When I'm playing my best, like I was at the U.S. Open, I feel on top of the match and able to do exactly what I want. There are other times when you're not in control, but that is tennis and you have momentum changes in every single match.
I love scoring for the fans, for the team, for myself. That's not to say that I won't pass if I see a teammate in a better scoring position. But I like to score.
I'm just here to compete and do the best I can and let things play out and just be the best teammate I can be, regardless of the situation.
I play to have fun. I play to win. I play for my teammates.
I want to play against the best, and that's what I'm doing, just going out there and being focused, just competing every possession.
