Lindsay Davenport Quotes

«To be honest, I was surprised I was number one up until today.»
«Definitely, when they said . . . this is my 15th US Open, it makes you think. I can't believe -- I don't think I can count all 15. No, there's no question I'm one of the veterans on tour. I like to think I'm still in my 20s, which I am. I'm not quite over the hill yet.»
«I haven't had any problems since I came back the second time this summer. Every other day helps quite a bit as well, knowing that I now have almost probably 48 hours before I play again. It's obviously much tougher when you've got back-to-back-to-back matches.»
«It's OK after a lot of treatment, but sometimes hurts when I bend over to pick up something.»
«I felt like, for awhile there, I couldn't have played much worse - like, it was not good.»
«She is a huge fighter.»
«It was a terrible match. People asked me if I was hurt (the residue of a back injury that bothered her during the Wimbledon final against Venus Williams). I wish I could say that. Unfortunately, I felt fine. At Wimbledon, I played my heart out and played really well and I totally got beat. Against Elena, I felt a lot of it had to do with me.»
«On the men's side, obviously, you have some upsets still here once in a while. Hopefully women's tennis will get to where there's a lot of depth from one through 100.»
«It's not a mission of mine to end the year No.1. I know if I win everything I have a very good chance, but I just want to focus on the matches I have to win and the tournaments that I'm committed to for the remainder of this year. Of course I'd take another Grand Slam title over the No.1 ranking any day, but I am proud of the fact that I'll probably finish another season at least in the Top Three. That's no mean feat.»
«There's going to be a void in my life when (tennis is) gone. I've never been one to sit around. I tried it once and after three days, it was like, 'This sucks, I'm so bored, I have no purpose.' I do know, number one, that I want to start a family and have kids. So, as far as having another career, I think that would be tough to do right away.»
