The bad thing about the [tennis] calendar is how it is made and obligates you to play tournaments all year. If you want to achieve the most you can (and) go as high up (in the rankings) as you can, you have to play from the start to the finish because there are important tournaments from the beginning to the end.
The most important thing to me is winning tournaments. I love winning.
Movement is one of the most important things. My consistency, everything - there's a lot to improve. Coaches are never happy. But I'd like to keep improving, go deeper in the tournaments, and get as high in the rankings as possible.
And my job is to look at the future of English cricket and develop a side that is capable of winning important series and tournaments in the next four years. And that is what I am going to concentrate on doing.
I don't believe in rankings. Sometimes the rankings surprise me. I don't think it's fair to judge a team on the basis of rankings.
It is important to start winning international tournaments early and get that mentality into you. Then, hopefully, you can take it on to the world stage.
When I start winning big tournaments I don't think I'll just win tournaments, I think I'll blow them away.
As I started developing, as I started playing more tournaments and getting higher in the rankings, I saw I had massive potential.
When you are in election mode, you are focused only on winning.
All this terminology of rankings - forcing rankings along some distribution curve or whatever - we're done with that.
I know lots of people who climb very high in the rankings without winning a single title.
I think one of the important things around tournaments and qualifying tournaments is the jeopardy around it.
I'm focused on going out and winning ballgames. Focused on getting better with the team every week.
I've played [Scrabble] tournaments for about 20 years. My daughter, Erin, who lives with me, also travels to tournaments. While I'm not a top division player, I've won a number of tournaments.
I'm doing whatever I have to do to help my team win. So, instead of being focused on anything from the outside, I'm focused on winning and that next game.
The only thing I focus on is just winning. Once we win, everyone remembers a winner. That's what I'm focused on.
