I feel like I am on a mission this year. A mission to win that darn league championship.

It's been an incredible ride. I came back to win a championship. Mission accomplished, and with that I have to bid farewell.

It's not a mission of mine to end the year No.1. I know if I win everything I have a very good chance, but I just want to focus on the matches I have to win and the tournaments that I'm committed to for the remainder of this year. Of course I'd take another Grand Slam title over the No.1 ranking any day, but I am proud of the fact that I'll probably finish another season at least in the Top Three. That's no mean feat.

I would rather win it than lose the championship but they deserve it this year. Definitely, he deserves it and next year I will try to give him a hard time and for sure he will try to do the same for me.

In England, if you win the championship, that enables you to run the #1 the following year, and you do it because it somewhat takes the value of winning the championship away if you're not going to use the #1, ... That's how it's perceived certainly with the people I know in Europe. My intention would be to run it if I'm allowed. Certainly that's what I'm going to push for.
