NICK KYRGIOS ON HOW HE VIEWS TENNIS - ‘Obviously I’m not taking it too serious and the rest of the tour, every single day, everything they do is for tennis and for me, I just want to go out there and have fun, entertain and sometimes it’s not easy for other people to concentrate, but you know, I’ll never change, from ten years old to now I’ve always been emotional on court and I’ve always wanted to make it theatrical, like a show, so that’s never going to change I think’.

CAMERON NORRIE ON HIS FITNESS - ‘I’m not a player who’s going to come out and hit you off the court, I have to chip away at you point-by-point and make sure I’m executing and make sure I’m at the top of my level physically to have a chance with these guys and that’s something I try to take care of as much as I can and take care of the diet and the physique as much as I can, because I like playing long rallies’.

GILLES MULLER ON HIS FAMOUS VICTORY AGAINST RAFAEL NADAL AT WIMBLEDON - ‘In that match I found my happy place, my happy zone. I was sometimes known for losing it on the court and getting upset with myself and losing control a bit, but in that match I don’t know what happened but it was just the perfect day’.

VICTOR LILOV ON HIS TRANSITION FROM WIMBLEDON JUNIOR FINALIST TO THE MAIN TOUR - ‘It’s just different paths. Some guys get lazy, some get injured and some just don’t have the game and some guys, maybe they are not as good in juniors but they have the right mindset or maybe when they are eighteen or nineteen years old they just start really clicking and become a lot better, so I think it’s just about the day-in-day-out work and never becoming complacent’.
