 Nono Chat February 2004 |
Interview with Arnaud's Mother - Merci Marine. You beat the record of the longest match in history, with 6h35m of play. How do you feel about it? Do I get a medal for that? (RG 2004) Do you consider clay as your worst surface?
Clay makes me sick. (On Sébastien and his smaller statures) We are the dwarfs. Was it problems with concentration today? Lleyton was too overwhelming in his
play?
(On his tattoo) The owl symbolises intelligence and wisdom. two things I don't have. You are well-known as someone who likes to have a lot of fun with tennis. Have
you always been like this?
Thirty percent of me was thinking 'oh la la, I'm going to play in the final of a
Grand Slam', but 70 percent of it was thinking 'oh la la, I'm going to have to
make a speech in English'. What did you learn from this week? ARNAUD CLEMENT: From this week, nothing. (TMS Cincinnati 2000) I say the words as they come me. Undoubtedly I should pay a little more attention because that can sometimes shock people, but I believe that it is better to be natural and to say what goes through my mind. Did you go back and forth thinking you were going to win or go into the third set? ARNAUD CLEMENT: I try to think -- to don't think about this. Just be focus on the next point. Because if I think of my chances, my brain can explode. Your brain cannot what? ARNAUD CLEMENT: Explode. You know? Oh, your brain would explode. ARNAUD CLEMENT: Explode. (TMS Cincinnati 2000) Sometimes, I am a little excessive. But generally, I realise that I went too far. And that irritates me even more. Are you liking America a little better now? ARNAUD CLEMENT: Yeah. Little bit. (Laughter.) (TMS Cincinnati 2000) |
