My dad said: 'It looks like you'll be world No.1 in a few hours and I wanted to be the first to say congratulations.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
To be the world No. 1 has always been a dream for me.
I'm still trying to be No. 1 in the world, like everyone else is out there.
I rolled up my sleeves and said, 'I want to make a mark on this world.'
Every morning, my dad would have me looking in the mirror and repeat, 'Today is going to be a great day; I can, and I will.'
Now, with all my world titles, I am very happy because I can say to all those people that what I chose to do was good for me.
To the world you may be one person but to one person you may be the world.
My dad was real hard on me. He wasn't really big on congratulating and stuff like that.
I'm the world number one, so everyone is trying to attack me and trying to speed up.
Don't forget to celebrate. When I was first coming up, everything was so serious - we were always rushing to get to the next thing - that we didn't take the time to say, 'Man, look what we did just now.'
I came into the world two months too soon, I was in such a hurry.
