Patrick McEnroe Quotations

I just wanted him to relax, not get too hyped up. I wanted to see him sort of calm out there, trust his game and his ability.

Davis Cup is obviously important to these guys. To know that we have a chance next year is exciting for us.

He's our No. 1 player, and he's extremely confident on grass. But by no means is this a guarantee we are going to win.

Obviously, playing on grass should help our cause, but at the same time we know the Chileans are capable of playing at a high level on any surface, particularly when they are representing their country. We will not take them lightly.

Both our guys are going to be ready.

I think that was a tough loss to take. I watched most of the match. He was up two sets to love and up 3-love in the third. I went off to an ESPN production meeting, which I'm now sorry I did. When I looked up 45 minutes later, it was two sets apiece. I couldn't figure out what happened.

Our doubles are sharp, and I expect them to play well.

I was very impressed with James' play. I think he's taken his game up a level or two.

He fought his heart out like he always does. This is Davis Cup and crazy things happen. This was crazy.

We had some very good options out there. My position was based on talking to my players, and taking a roll call of what they wanted and what I thought was best for our team.
