I'm really trying to focus myself on playing tennis, and I think that's really important.

I'm telling you, it's so exciting playing out there because I'm playing well, you have the crowd behind you, and it's such a good feeling. I'm really having a good time out there.

I've been here playing against Connors and it can be very, very loud. It makes it exciting at the same time.

I'd won the Australian Open twice, but winning Wimbledon takes something special.

It was a tough year for me, '89, losing two Slam finals and losing another five finals. It wasn't until I won the Masters, or what's now called the ATP Finals, that things changed again. Suddenly I won seven tournaments in 1990 and became No. 1.
