"How would she know what it’s like to be number one?" -Steffi Graf (After comments from Gabriela Sabatini who said Steffi lost the confidience of being #1) You go Steffi
“I watched Serena and Venus play, and they’re not that good. They’ve been given more attention than me and they don’t know how to play points..." - Anna K-How wrong she was!!
Interviewer: 'Lindsay, Anna said she had trouble adjusting to the wind. She said that if that weren't a factor she would have won today'.
Lindsay: 'She can say whatever she wants. The point is I'm into the next round and she's in the hotel room packing'.- This one is timeless :bounce:

lol at the lindsay one
:lol: Lindsay:worship:joeslim said:
She's got a couple of other great ones as well.
Wimbledon '98
Interviewer: Any comments on Serena's retirement from her match the other day?
Lindsay: I saw that match against Ruano-Pascual and it was a little fishy to me. She was moving well and then she just stopped. I don't think she was hurt at all. She was getting her ass kicked. I thought she was a complete wimp about it. I played her in mixed doubles the next day and she was diving for balls, so yeah...you do the math.
Wimbledon '99 doubles final on court.
Lindsay: The netcord machine isn't working.
Ref: I don't see a problem with it.
Lindsay: Are you kidding? My serve just hit the net and nothing happened. Can you turn it off?
Ref: We'll stay with it. It's working fine in my opinion.
Lindsay: HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?! I just hit two straight serves on the netcord and...(smacks the netcord as hard as she can with her racket and nothing happens) SEE?! It doesn't work!
Serena at Wimby '00.
Interviewer: 33 minutes to move through today, Serena. What took longer? The match or your hair?
Serena: You want the truth? My hair (laughs).

2002 PACIFIC LIFE OPEN
INDIAN WELLS, CALIFORNIA
March 8, 2002
N. DECHY/K. Clijsters
6-2, 7-5
Q. Kim (Clijsters) told us because she has an ear infection, she couldn't hear the ball bounce. Wouldn't that be an enormous handicap to a tennis player, not being able to hear the ball bounce?
NATHALIE DECHY: Yes, and not being able to see the ball also, I guess (laughter).
Classic! :haha:

Martina Hingis to Lindsay Davenport "Do you want me to serve or do you want me to break you"

"It's a faster, more athletic game. She is old now. ... Her time has passed."
(Martina Hingis on Steffi Graf in the July 1998 issue of "Tennis")
“I’ve never played in an audience that wasn’t for me. The day will come and I’ll be prepared.” -Venus
Venus should go straight to the Hall of Fame. She’s going to be there anyway, so why waste time?” -Richard Williams

(Martina Hingis)
Pam Shriver: (interviewing Navratilova) Martina, you've had some great memories on Louis Armstrong stadium over your career. Are there any memories on this court that are particularly painful?

It's ATP, and it's been posted before but it's a classic. After a loss against Moya at the US Open, a journalist asked Todd Martin: "Where are you physically?" and he answered: "Physically? I'm right here. Do you want to know where I am metaphysically?".
