Q. At the French Open you might have heard about Federer, Djokovic, Nadal doing some karaoke to promote the tournament. If Wimbledon asked you to do the same thing, one would you do it and two, what would your tune be?
A: I don't sing.
Q. Not at all?
A. No, not at all. I don't sing. It wouldn't be fun. It would start raining.
- ReRe Williams
Q. What about your outfit here at Wimbledon this year? Anything special about it?
A. Yeah, it's Swan Lake inspired.
Q. I have no clue what that means.
A. When you see it, you'll see a swan. You'll be inspired. My coach saw it the other day and he said he started feeding bread to it, so he got it (smiling).
- Maria Shriekapova
Q. Slight difference this year. Federer didn't play Halle. Seemed to particularly have taken the French Open defeat in the final quite badly, for a few days at least.
A. Did he say that or are you guys saying that?
Q. It's another year, isn't it? It's another French Open final, isn't it? Another defeat. Maybe he's thinking, Am I ever going to win this damn thing?
A. Know what that's like.
- A-Rod
Q. Do you think that your attitude mentally is too negative before you even start to play on grass?
A. Negative, why? I say the true, no?
Q. You feel almost as Federer will beat you before you go on court.
A. He didn't say that.
Q. That's just my impression.
A. Is your impression.
- Rafa Nadal
