"What is the single most important quality in a tennis champion? I would have to say desire, staying in there and winning matches when you are not playing that well."

Quality

Strategy

"I haven't seen a professional player come out of New York in over 20 years since my brother Patrick came out. Blake spent a few years in Harlem, but he moved to Connecticut when he was a kid."
