What these guys are doing is great for Argentinean tennis. This is motivating other people.
You don't need to know who's playing on the White House tennis court to be a good president.
When I think about it, the happiest and most successful people I know don't just love what they do, they're obsessed with solving something that matters to them. They remind me of a dog chasing a tennis ball: Their eyes go a little crazy, the leash snaps and they go bounding off, plowing through whatever gets in the way.
Hollywood is a boys' club, and that's something I thought was a stereotype - and it's not. That really shocked me. Still shocks me. Everyone's helping their buddies out and pressing their buddies and playing tennis with their buddies and making movies with their buddies, and that grosses me out.
I grew up on games like Madden and NBA Jam, then moved on to NFL 2K on Dreamcast. The game I really loved was Virtua Tennis.
Tennis has to become everything to you if you're going to make it to the top. You have to live it.
I had not picked up a tennis racket in 15 years, so I tried.
Comedy prepared me for drama. There are a couple techniques you can think of. One of my acting teachers said that comedy is like ping-pong, and drama is tennis. You take things a bit slower, so you do get to breathe more and take some more time.
Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.
It's so difficult to find time besides the tennis.
When you do something best in life, you don't really want to give that up - and for me it's tennis.
It's true I always try to be as seductive as possible but I wouldn't be here if I couldn't play tennis.
Since a month, two months ago, you know, I've started hitting the ball well. I'm playing some really good tennis. That really helps. I sort of have to motivate myself to get pumped up. It really helps my game a lot.
Acting is like a sporting match; a tennis game, but no one should win or lose. The game's the thing!
Actors need bricks to play with, and in fact we rejected all the improvised fragments we had made without a plan. Improvisation without a plan is like tennis without tennis balls.
You always want to win. That is why you play tennis, because you love the sport and try to be the best you can at it.
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.
At 9, I think I had really gotten into tennis. I liked writing short stories; I loved solving math problems. I was learning a little piano, and I was collecting Garbage Pail Kids cards.
What is the single most important quality in a tennis champion? I would have to say desire, staying in there and winning matches when you are not playing that well.
If you look at tennis, the girls have become much more attractive; they wear makeup. In my generation, you were a tennis player. It wasn't like you had to look a certain way.
If you can keep playing tennis when somebody is shooting a gun down the street, that's concentration.
Acting is a sport, like a game of tennis, and you and your opponent take turns setting the level of play.
Me writing about tennis is like a baker baking bread.
What I want out of tennis is not necessarily just winning.
I haven't been in tennis for that long, but what I can say is that we have a lot of young guys at the top who are willing to do a lot of good things for tennis in general.
Yeah, I think there are many other important things in life, not just tennis.
It's an amazing feeling: tennis is growing very quickly in Canada, and to be a big part of it is an honour.
As a teenager, Monica Seles won some historic matches on the tennis court, dominating opponents and filling a room with trophies.
I often find that pundits are quite negative... not just in tennis, but in sport in general. I just don't like that. Obviously, the job of a pundit is to create interest and a bit of controversy. I get that. Listeners like that. But I do think there's a duty there to promote the sport and talk about how good these people are at what they do.
I've seen tennis clubs close in Manhattan and garages put up in their place, and I'd sure like to be part of reversing that trend.
Because I was a tennis player, Billie Jean King was a hero of mine.
I always find the time to exercise - kitesurfing, tennis or cycling - and to spend time with my loved ones.
I'm a softball player. I'm a soccer player. I played tennis every day. I love being outside.
I've been playing against older and stronger competition my whole life. It has made me a better tennis player and able to play against this kind of level despite their strength and experience.
I used to get nervous, you know if my parents would come watch. And then I would get nervous if my friends came and watched. Today it's not a problem anymore actually, because now I enjoy it. I see that they, you know, respect me immensely, and I try to put on a good show and show that I can still play very good tennis.
Maybe I was accepted to Harvard only because of my tennis skills, since I definitively had no great academic achievements. I was 17 and only thought about surfing and playing tennis. I had almost never left Rio de Janeiro and had never been to the United States.
