47 Quotes by Stefan Edberg

I'd won the Australian Open twice, but winning Wimbledon takes something special.

I'm telling you, it's so exciting playing out there because I'm playing well, you have the crowd behind you, and it's such a good feeling. I'm really having a good time out there.

I’m always being realistic.

I’m really trying to focus myself on playing tennis, and I think that’s really important.

It was a tough year for me, ’89, losing two Slam finals and losing another five finals. It wasn’t until I won the Masters, or what’s now called the ATP Finals, that things changed again. Suddenly I won seven tournaments in 1990 and became No. 1.

For me, and most of the other players, too, if you had to pick one of the four Grand Slams, you would pick Wimbledon. It’s got tradition, it’s got atmosphere, and it’s got mystique.

I’ve been in a lot of trouble and come out of it. I think it shows a lot of good character.

If I’m going to be out there, I want to be in the top 10 and really have a chance of winning a Grand Slam.

I’ve been on the tour for many, many years. It’s time for me to go now, before it’s too late.
