I really enjoyed playing Yannick Noah - he was and still is my favourite. In the heat of the moment he was very fair and very physical. He was strong, big and he moved unbelievably well. He was also mentally tough.

I play a lot of golf and I'm in a little ice hockey league at home in Idaho.

I was 7 years old and my dad gave me a wooden tennis racket.

Nick Kyrgios, physically, is a monster. When he is on the court and he runs, he flies. And he has got a massive arm.

The point is to win the biggest tournaments and beat the biggest guys head to head. Then, if the computer ranking works out that you are No 1 in the world so be it.

Tennis is a running game, not a hitting game - it's not golf.

I decided to work really hard in 1987. I hired Matt Doyle, a former pro player, and he helped me with my physical training. Lendl was the first to focus on that. He used to be weak, physically and mentally.

He didn't have the best shots but the intensity of the match and the positive energy you got from playing Yannick Noah was something I didn't get from anyone else.

The Davis Cup should be home and away from the semi-finals as a minimum, I would say even the quarters.

The slide is tennis.

I think it's bad in a way for junior players and college players to feel they must be number one.

I love my life. I commentate for Eurosport, so you could say I've reached the final of every grand slam since 2002 when I started that. I love what I do, and I love playing tennis with amateurs, regular guys, helping to teach them to enjoy tennis more.

I always feel that if you were the best in any generation, you most likely would have been close to the best in any other generation too.

I play the guitar.

I hardly ever watch TV and when I do it's sports. I'll occasionally stick on some old episode of 'Fawlty Towers' or something.

In Sun Valley, people play tennis and then go for a hike. You should be too tired to go for a hike!

My genetic makeup is a little bit crazy.

Myself and Cameron Lickle travel around North America in an RV and we conduct tennis clinics in clubs.

When I was 14 I wasn't even thinking of playing professional tennis. I was thinking of going to high school in Sweden then getting a job.

I think every human being has good intentions in one aspect of life and some in every.

I am willing to take chances. I miss more, but I am going for it.

The point in tennis is to take the ball as early as possible and take time away from your opponent.

When I first retired from the game, I had times in my life when the days just wouldn't move.

Power is not tennis to me. I'd rather lose playing my game.

Nadal is going to break all the records.

Ivan Lendl was the best player I ever played. He was the first guy to bring the game to more of a power level and you could know that if he played really well you could get blown off court and that wouldn't happen against John McEnroe, Jimmy Connors or even Bjorn Borg or Guillermo Vilas.

Tennis has always been at the forefront of equality between men and women's prize money.

Some tournaments wouldn't work as men's and women's event but others would.

I have fun playing tennis and I understand that the good things from tennis go hand in hand with attention. But it's not important to me.

Borg had an American attitude, which I think is not so good. He only enjoyed winning and he was out of tennis when he was 26.

I always want to win when I play, but sometimes I just can't get that interested all the time.

To me, there are only a few tournaments that are important. The Grand Slams, Davis Cup, the Swedish Open; that's about it.

I'm not actually a musician.

Wimbledon is not the easiest tournament in which to make a comeback.

I started with the two-handed backand before Borg was famous.

The more happy you are off the court, the more you will get out of yourself on the court.

The goals become harder to focus on when there isn't a specific number in mind, or a title that you haven't won.

No absolutely not, I don't have any regrets about anything I've done in my life I learn from my mistakes and without mistakes I wouldn't be where I am today.

I'm never really aware of mistakes I've made when I'm commentating or on TV, I'm sure they happen sometimes and I guess it makes for a more interesting experience!

Your game stalls when you assume you're the finished product.

In 2015, there was no chance Djokovic would have an off day.

We need more honesty out there, but it is hard when you see what the media does to someone who is trying to be honest.

Everybody gets bored or rather emotionally flat sometimes, but most players are not so honest as Tomic. They have sponsors that need to be happy, and they want to keep the tour happy.

If you don't get tired or bored then there is something wrong with you - you are not human. People maybe don't realize that. Players try to hide it and try to be the perfect role model, but it is not always so easy.

You have to hate to lose.

Hockey is the dream of all Swedes. They get the girls.

There is no such thing as bad luck in tennis. Just bad technique.

Usually if you haven't figured out how you want to play tennis yourself, it is hard to accept the failures of playing five sets.

You should play all the slams you physically can.

Nadal tries his best all the time, every point. But Kyrgios can spend 10 minutes looking like he would rather be walking down the King's Road.
