WIMBLEDON '95 QUOTES OF THE DAY
n In future I'll let my girlfriend Lucy open the mail. I will read the good ones and she can deal with the bad. Britain's new favourite Greg Rusedski on two hate mail letters among 45 congratulating him on his Wimbledon performances.
n I just wanted to make it more exciting. It was kind of weird. Gabriela Sabatini, the No 8 seed, after losing the first five games against the Belgian Nancy Feber. Sabatini recovered to win 7-5, 6-1.
n When he's in that form it's a joke. It's like you're not playing the same game. Arnaud Boetsch, of France, after being outgunned by the Croatian fourth seed Goran Ivanisevic who delivered 22 aces during his 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 third-round victory.
n Back in '92 I served 209 aces and lost in the final. It was a record, but I still came second. I'd rather hit one ace all tournament and win it. Ivanisevic.
n I've got the potential to reach the top 50 . . . in Britain. No, that's a joke. I mean the world. Chris Wilkinson after his defeat against the American Michael Joyce.
