I tell him that I'm happy about the ranking, that it feels good to be the best that I can be.
This is a lie.
This isn't at all what I feel.
It's what I want to feel.
It's what I expected to feel.
It's what I tell myself to feel.
But in fact, I feel nothing.
And this goes back to his introspective, trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with me?
What is going on?
Wondering what the hell is wrong with me?
I did it.
I'm the number one tennis player on earth, yet I feel empty.
The problem all this time is that I've had the wrong goals.
I never really wanted to be number one.
That was just something other people wanted for me.
I never cared about the rankings and I never cared about the number of slams I won.
And again, I need to make this point.
Like the reason you read this book is because he figures out a way to not feel empty, to not hate his life, but he's not there yet.
He's got to fall.
I've won 63 of 70 matches this year, 44 of 46 on hard court.
