My comeback was not about winning or losing; it was about the feeling of being able to compete at top level again.
I was so tired of playing tennis, so tired of traveling, of hotels, everything related to this sport.
Way of life in Australia focuses more on the outdoors.
I've reached most my goals and when my career is over I will have many other things to do.
To work a vineyard, you need a lot of guts to do that. To go out there and work all year, you almost feel that these people talk to the grapes. Wine is a lifestyle, and you can talk about it for ages. It's a passion, but it's not something I can do on a daily basis.
I think my family needs me more than anybody else, and tennis doesn't need me anymore. I respect my wife a lot for taking all that in. She said, 'I didn't marry a tennis player; you'd retired.' Now it's time to do something else.
