First of all, let me say, 1:15 in the morning, for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was. That's awesome. I don't know if I've ever felt so good here before.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Winning Wimbledon was a great feeling and it is still a great feeling. It has given me so much confidence.
Each weekend I play at least one and maybe two sets of tennis a day. My doubles team was in the finals recently at my tennis club in Palm Beach and lost a tiebreaker after a three-hour match. I must confess, by the end of the three hours, I was relieved it was over.
Tennis has given me this wonderful life and I'm very grateful for it.
It was so inspiring for me to watch tennis growing up. I thought I was really good playing, until my brother told me I wasn't!
I'm just glad Open tennis is here. It's great for the game. That's more important.
I'd like to think I could have and should have won more, but that's not the point. And I was at the point where I was playing great tennis in the mid 80s - the type of tennis people hadn't seen before - and I was very proud of that.
I had a great tennis career. I have no regrets. But to find peace with yourself, and to finally be with your family - I'm probably the happiest guy in the world.
Yes, yes, I'm very happy that I finally got through this match, beat No. 7 in the world. It's my best win so far. So I'm really happy the way I play today and felt really strong on the court physically, mentally.
I would like to thank all my tennis fans who were there from Day One when I was No. 1, through my stabbing, and my comeback.
This was a special week and a special victory for me. I played some great tennis.
