As you get older you play in more important games and that is when you start thinking about what will happen if you win or lose.

When you're young, you develop ways to win, and you think they will always work, but then you get to the top, competing against the other top athletes, and sometimes things don't work.

You get to an age when you lose people close to you.

You learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going.

When you lose, you're more motivated. When you win, you fail to see your mistakes and probably no one can tell you anything.

Winning is something you've dreamed about and hoped for, so that when you get there it's no big deal. But if you lose, you're gutted, and the gutted sense just goes on, and I know what that's like, because I've been having that gutted feeling since 1979.

Even when you lose, you get better. Sometimes when you lose, you win.

When I was younger I used to be devastated if I would lose.

I never think about losing. That's why it's so hard to accept a loss.

Some times you lose more than you win. It's about handling losses and trying to turn them into positives. You get out into the big leagues and there's a period of adjustment to be made. You've got to handle it.
