Quotes:

It was a dream for me to get to the final of the French Open against Justine. I had a good first game, then I started to think about it and my arm got stiff and I could not throw up the ball so well!
View quotes by Ana Ivanovic

I picked up the ball and said: 'Is this the great Graham Thorpe? Stop backing away, try and get in line mate.' He said 'Bring it on, Besty'
View quotes by Tino Best

Properly, we should read for power. Man reading should be man intensely alive. The book should be a ball of light in one's hand.
View quotes by Ezra Pound

Others scored faster; hit the ball harder; more obviously murdered bowling. No one else, though, ever batted with more consummate skill [on Jack Hobbs]
View quotes by John Arlott

At Jinja there is both hotel and golf course. The latter is, I believe, the only course in the world which posts a special rule that the player may remove his ball from hippopotamus footprints.
View quotes by Evelyn Waugh

Golf... is the infallible test. The man who can go into a patch of rough alone, with the knowledge that only God is watching him, and play his ball where it lies, is the man who will serve you faithfully and well.
View quotes by P G Wodehouse

I am pleased with the way we played. The back three, with the way they worked off the ball, were tremendous. [on England finally winning a game in 2005 6 Nations]
View quotes by Andy Robinson

Baseball is a game where a curve is an optical illusion, a screwball can be a pitch or a person, stealing is legal and you can spit anywhere you like except in the umpire's eye or on the ball.
View quotes by Jim Murray

It's actually what I consider legalised cheating because one of the great senses that you have on a tennis court is your ability to hear the ball come off your opponent's strings [on Sharapova grunting]
View quotes by John Newcombe

When I played ball, I didn't play for fun... It's no pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out. It's a contest and everything that implies, a struggle for supremacy, a survival of the fittest.
View quotes by Ty Cobb

I wouldn't put it down as a mistake, it was just a piece of very bad luck [on Paul Robinson missing the ball when clearing for England allowing an easy Croatia goal]
View quotes by Pat Jennings

I’ve got this job where I show off, play my favourite records and get free drinks and I get to shag Zoe Ball. Maybe when I die there will be some horrible punishment, like spending the rest of eternity with Liz Hurley.
View quotes by Norman Cook

My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match. However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into victories.
View quotes by Bjorn Borg

I think I played really solid starting at the first ball. I always went for the good shot at the right moment. I played really aggressive.
View quotes by Kristof Vliegen

They say some of my stars drink whiskey, but I have found that ones who drink milkshakes don't win many ball games.
View quotes by Casey Stengel

Keith Gillespie is a good player, lots of skills, looks good on the ball... but he does lack a little bit of inconsistency!
View quotes by Graeme Le Saux

I score many lucky goals in my football life because I am always there, trying to shoot. For me the best goals are the ones like this when the ball just crosses the line.
View quotes by Mateja Kezman

We have enough players in our squad here who can hit the ball over the ropes. So, hopefully, at some stage there will be a role there for a nudger and nurdler like me. It's not a glamorous role, but it is there.
View quotes by Andrew Strauss

Whenever I talk about beating Steve Davis in that final I still feel the excitement of potting that final ball.
View quotes by Dennis Taylor

It was a great day for us today, it's always good when you get plenty of runs on the board and then put pressure on the other side with the ball, and that's exactly what we did today.
