I'd Also Made The First

I'd Also Made The First Tennis Team. I Was Number Two Player In The School At 11 Years Of Age And That Didn't Sit Very Well With People.

I Had Started My Love Affair With Wimbledon.

So There Was A Fire Inside Me. And That Fire Inside You, It Can Be Turned Into A Negative Form Or A Positive Form. And I Gradually Realised That I Had This Fire And That It Had To Be Used In A Positive Way.

I Chose To Stay With Tennis And They Didn't Understand That At The School.

There Was Kind Of A Code That You Had As An Australian That You Never Left The Court Losing Unless You Had Blood All Over You. That's The Sort Of Toughness You Need To Compete On The World Stage And I Feel That Our Kids Today Just Don't Have It.
