I don't think I'm a home run hitter. Most of my home runs are line drives. If I hit it, thanks God. But it's not the kind of thing that I think about. I just go out there and try to have a better season than I had before. Home runs are not in my mind.
I never wanted to play the short game.
We play fair and we play hard. If we win the game we win, if we lose the game, we lose.
I've always been a physical player.
That's the great thing about sports: You play to win, and I don't care if you don't have any wins. You go play to win. When you start telling me it doesn't matter, then retire. Get out. 'Cause it matters.
Golf is not sacred, and there is no use getting so gosh-darned solemn about it.
Americans are very much 'Win! Win! Win!' In England, we don't give a fig whether you win. It's great if you do, but we appreciate those who don't.
I'm not paid to be a role model. I'm paid to wreak havoc on the basketball court.
When the English have scored a goal, they think nothing more remains to be done.
The problem with many athletes is they take themselves seriously and their sport lightly.
It is certainly not how I've been brought up and it's not in my blood to play cricket in that safety-first way.
I won't have any competitive instincts in any sports, other than golf. I can't see being competitive in sports any more.
Treat cricket like a sport.
To me, Hewitt and Nadal would be the best spirited fighters I've ever seen on the tennis court.
I think the more games the better and I am always one that would rather play than train.
It is not in the DNA of Juventus to think of a draw.
It's a sport, you've got to push hard and you've got to get after it. You can't complain, you can't be a sore loser and all this shoulda, coulda, woulda stuff.
Why is it there are so many nice guys interested in baseball? Not me, I was a real bastard when I played.
In Spain and Italy, they like it when you win with good football, but winning without is appreciated.
You can't be a poor sport all the time.
