The ranking never lies.

The schedule is tough in tennis.

I have many good friends on tour.

I like to go to Mauritius on holiday.

I enjoy Indian cuisine a lot. It's delicious.

Queen's is one of my favourite tournaments of the year.

My favourite film is 'Le Diner de Cons,' a French movie.

Every time I step on the court, I know I can beat my opponent.

When you go up in the ranking, for sure you have more friends.

I think I love my sport. I enjoy to play tennis. It's my passion.

To say that I won the French Open, it's something completely crazy.

Once you are on court, everything is different. I focus on the match.

My game takes time to adapt to grass; grass is a little bit different.

I am really close friends with Roger Federer and also with Benoit Paire.

When I was young, I liked to spend hours and hours on the practice court.

I always try to find the positives in losing a match but it's not always easy.

The only plan is trying to push myself the maximum to be the best player I can.

I always try to find the positives in losing a match, but it's not always easy.

You always need to try hard to find solutions. It's the same in life or tennis.

All you can do is trust your game and not wait for the opponent to give you the match.

I'm always trying to improve, always trying to be at my top, trying to push the limit.

I won a grand slam with an Audemars Piguet on my wrist, so I feel it is a great match.

I'm always proud to play for Switzerland, and that will always be something really special.

Playing a best of five-set match, you can always bounce back, even if you lose the first set.

I never dreamed to win a Grand Slam. It was never a dream because, for me, it was way too far.

I never expected to win a Grand Slam because, for me, I was not good enough to beat those guys.

I know if I want to have a chance to beat the top players, I need to be mentally ready for that.

When you don't play those big matches for a few years, it's tough to play back-to-back after that.

I think it is good to grow up on a farm, with nature, with animals and everything when you are young.

In Grand Slam, you play every two days, five-set match. You have a little bit more time to make mistake.

Those big matches, when you go through so much, are the best thing. Those matches are why you play tennis.

You have to make sacrifices. You have to work out, to be relaxed in your mind, to focus on what you're doing.

It doesn't matter the way you're playing, especially the beginning of a grand slam. It doesn't change anything.

I like Chennai very much. The atmosphere is always great, and the fans are amazing. That's why I keep coming back.

Stress is part of your career. You have to accept it and deal with it because there is a lot of emotion in tennis.

I was never afraid of getting up early and practice for many hours. I often go to practice very early during winter.

Every match I won in a Grand Slam, I take confidence of that, and when I arrive in a final, I know my game is there.

As a child, I was lucky to have the support of my parents because starting a tennis career is a very expensive adventure.

I just have to play my best game. Not think about anything else - that is the only concern I have and that we should all have.

When I'm back home, I try to do as little as possible because I want to take time with my family. That's the most important thing.

If you start to hesitate with your game, if you start to not go completely with your plan, then it's tough to play your best tennis.

I grew up surrounded by tennis, so I was obviously more interested in it than football - particularly as it's the most popular sport.

It's simple - I love food. I am travelling all-year round, so I have the chance to eat every food possible, so I am really lucky with that.

I've always enjoyed playing in Switzerland. The crowd support is amazing here, and Basel is one of the best indoor tournaments in the world.

Every minute counts. Being on time or not can mean the difference of a win or a loss and even of something positive or negative happening in life.

By growing up at a center for people with special needs, I learned to always fight hard to achieve what I want. In this regard, I was incredibly lucky.

I had a very happy childhood. I was lucky to grow up surrounded by nature and animals, to be outside all the time, and to work on a big farm with my dad.

Unfortunately, some younger player doesn't understand that if you want to get through, you have to sacrifice, you have to work hard, and there is no easy way.

My body is for my tennis - it's for my sport. I'm not a model at all. I don't work out to go to the beach: I work out to play well and to do well on the court.

I never start anything 'I want to be No. 1. I want to win Grand Slam.' For me, no. It's always step by step. The only thing I want to do, it's to push the limit.
