It was a brief conversation. I told (Brooks) that I didn't want to hear anything.

I've had brief conversations with Patrick but he hasn't told me anything outside of it's between James (Blake) and I, ... I know that this week and next week will be a factor in his decision. Anytime I can get a chance to play Davis Cup, I definitely want to do it.

I didn't hear the conversation but Mr. Stephens explained to Mr. Roberts that he had plans for me and I'd be all right.

He told me he had bronchitis that he couldn't shake. It's nice to hear all of the nice things being said about him now, and, knowing Don, he wouldn't understand all of the fuss.

It was just so wonderful to hear his voice. He just told everyone how much they meant to him and how much this sport meant to him.

But we couldn't even hear him.
