| Wednesday, 25 June 2008 Written by Helen Gilbert “She didn't send me the charter. That's why I didn't come.” - Marat Safin on why he did not attend sister Dinara Safina’s Roland Garros final. “I'm really happy for Marat. I get along really well with him. I played him in Las Vegas earlier this year. I kind of felt sorry for him on the court. He was terrible. So for him to come out and be able to turn it around and play like this in a big tournament, it's fantastic for him, it really is.”- Lleyton Hewitt on Marat Safin’s victory over No. 3 seed Novak Djokovic. “I just went to kiss the net because I felt so lucky. If it wasn't for that net and that place, you know, I would be booking my flight back home. I felt so, so lucky to be through today because she played really well and didn't make me feel like I was playing good.” - Ana Ivanovic on the net-cord on match point that saved her going out of Wimbledon. “During one second I thought I won because the ball stayed on the net for just a tiny bit. Then I didn't see clearly if it was going on my side or on her side. Then I saw. I was like, gee, there's maybe somebody in the sky who helped her on that one. But it's part of the sport, and it's why this sport is so difficult but so beautiful at the same time.” - Nathalie Dechy on the net-cord that robbed her of victory against No. 1 seed Ana Ivanovic. “You feel like you're playing in a museum a little bit. I think that's why a lot of players enjoy it. Because you grew up as a tennis player knowing that Wimbledon is the most coveted title out of all Slams, I think it has that aura around it.” - Dmitry Tursunov on what makes Wimbledon a different Grand Slam to the others. “Every other week, in a way you look at the rankings, not particularly because of your own but just see who's moving around a little bit. For instance, when Stan [Wawrinka] – a friend – moved up the ranking, it was fun to see where he came from… 25, 28 to No. 10 in the world. But I wouldn't know how much my lead is, for instance. As long as I'm No. 1, I don't really look at my ranking very much.” - Roger Federer on the last time he looked at the rankings to see who is coming up behind him.
