“I think the Davis Cup has some untapped potential. It should be as prominent as the Grand Slams when it takes place. If you put it together with Fed Cup for an organized, nationalistic team competition taking place in a central location for two weeks, I think that would be beneficial from a fan interest stand point, from a media stand point and from a television stand point.” IfsThinkingShouldTwoWould BeTogetherInterestWeekTeamFansMediaTelevisionCompetitionCupsOrganizedFedsLocationBeneficialTwo WeeksSlamProminentNationalisticUntapped Potential Author:Jim Courier

“There is a lot of pressure on tennis players like other sports that are singular like you're not on a team. When all the pressure rides on your shoulders, it can be a lot different.

But in tennis you're out there by yourself. There are no caddies. There are no coaches. You do it alone in the arena and I think that ups the ante a little bit.” ThinkingDifferentMomentsWinningSportsLossPlayerTeamShareLike YouCoachesTennisTeammateTennis Player Author:Jim Courier
