I was making comebacks every single year. That makes it difficult mentally. It causes a lot of stress.

It's a pity that the tennis is really going down the drain. Every year it's getting worse and worse and worse. There has to be a radical change, and I hope it will be really soon.

I pass through the difficult moments in life, really difficult times on grass, during my seven years of my career. All of a sudden I felt comfortable.

I've had a lot of luck. If I didn't I'd be washing bottles in Russia.

No matter what happens, tennis is still tennis: You can see a lot of great matches, a lot of new people.

Making a comeback is one of the most difficult things to do with dignity.
