Iga Swiatek says she wants to make some technical changes in the coming weeks and months, ‘I see Carlos for example changing his serve every year 😂. For me it’s like one little thing takes a much longer time’ “You’ve said a couple of times you know what you... need to work on. Are you able to share what those things are?” Iga: “Some technical stuff that have been pretty tough for me to have a smooth process in terms of changing them. I see Carlos for example changing his serve every year 😂. For me it’s like one little thing takes a much longer time. There’s some stuff on the serve I want to change. I already changed that in the preseason but then the matches come and you don’t have that much time to think about this. You don’t want to think about these kind of details when you play. Then it comes back to the old patterns. Basically I’ll focus on that and I’ll see from there. There are some things I can change to play better. I’ll try to do that in the next weeks and months.” (via Australian Open Press)show more

Iga Swiatek says the first set against Elena Rybakina was decided by a couple of points, but Elena stepped up the power & precision in the 2nd set “For sure I didn’t serve as well as in Cincinnati for example against Elena. My serve was kind of normal. And sometimes it could’ve given me a bit more. As I said, in the first set I think it was a difference of a couple points. She also gave me some chances on her serve. Sometimes I used them… sometimes it was like 30-30 and for example, I missed one return. I wanted to be aggressive on the second serve. So sometimes you will make mistakes. But if you want to break you need to make it in in a moment like that. In the 2nd set, I felt that the pace from her got a little bit even higher. She was more precise. Maybe I dropped the intensity at the beginning especially. I have some stuff I wanna work on. It’s never been so flawless for me playing on these courts, as they’re fast. I guess I’ll try next time anyways.” (via Australian Open Press)

Iga Swiatek on constantly being filmed at Australian Open and other tournaments, ‘The question is, are we tennis players? Or are we animals in the zoo? It would be nice to have some privacy’ “I wanted to ask something that Coco was talking about last night. The cameras backstage at the tournament… I know you got filmed recently forgetting your credential… you’re sort of always on camera at a lot of different tournament areas.. I’m wondering if you think there should be more privacy for players and their teams as they’re back there? Or how you see the balance of that versus them trying to have entertainment and content coming out.” Iga: “The question is, are we tennis players? Or are we animals in the zoo? Where they are observed even when they’re pooping. Ok, that was exaggerating obviously, but it would be nice to have some privacy. It would be nice also to have your own process and not always be observed. For example, in other sports, you have some technical things you wanna do. It would be nice to have some space you can do that without the whole world watching. On Wimbledon there are courts where people with accreditation can get there but it’s without the fans. There are some tournaments where it’s impossible and you’re constantly observed. I don’t think it should be like that because we are tennis players. We’re meant to be watched on court and in the press. That’s our job. It’s not our job to be a meme when you forget your accreditation. It’s funny for sure. People have something to talk about. For us, I don’t think it’s necessary.” “Have you talked to the tournament about it here?” Iga: “What’s the point?” (via Australian Open Press)

This piece is 4 years old, and in artist years, that feels like a lifetime. So much can change in that time. Your style, your skill, your perspective. I usually have a hard time looking at my older work, especially anything more than a year old. I tend to focus on all the things I could’ve done better. But this one hits differently. It’s like that one song you used to listen nonstop during a specific time in your life. Every time you hear it, it instantly takes you back. Super nostalgic. That’s what this piece does for me. It reminds me of the younger DeeKay: full of curiosity, obsessed with the craft, completely immersed in the joy of creating. I’m still that person, but with a lot more responsibilities now. That purity I felt back then, I don’t ever want to lose it. I want to keep making art that moves people. I want to stay playful. I don’t want to grow up.

Harry about why he chose to do residencies in certain cities on Zane Lowe “I think it makes the show better. I think you can build something that doesn't have to travel every night. I think the show itself is better. I think there's something in this that allows me to like stay in my life while I'm doing it and therefore I think allows me to take care of myself better, which I think makes me better at doing the thing. It's not like I'm saying I'll never travel again, but I want to see what it looks like if you do it a different way. And you know, people in my band have like families now and kids and some aspect of that, too. It's really important to me that they're on the road that I would love to like have them and I don't want to make it like near impossible for them to be able to do that with me.”

Harry Styles thanking his fans 💟 “I’d love to just say thank you. I think the way they’ve made me feel, wanting me to just be who I am in the moment and make whatever I’m at in the moment and them being open to that, being patient for that, and waiting..you know, not wanting me to do it before I’m ready to do it. I think when you go away for a long time, I don’t assume that there are people waiting when you come back, necessarily. Since announcing the album and stuff, I think I’ve felt so loved by them. It’s made me feel really wonderful and full, and like I’m coming back for the right reason because there’s a group of amazing people that I want to play music for. So, yeah, just a thank you, really. I can’t wait to see them out there. I’ll be right there with them." - 102.7 KIIS FM

De’Anthony Melton says he wants to be rewarded for his hardwork this offseason: “I mean I’ve been in this league a decent amount of time now. So 8 years is a lot of time. I’ve put in a lot of time and effort and work into this, you know what I mean? So I think that should be rewarded and I think, for anybody, you put in that much time, effort, work and you know you’ve seen the results and you’ve seen how much impactful you are and what you have done, like I said, you want to be rewarded for that. So, whatever comes with it, comes with it, but end of the day you want to get rewarded for your services.” (via 95.7 The Game)

Wendy: In the past, I used to cry easily. Whenever I watched sad movies or dramas, I’d cry often. Now, even if I were to watch those, I don’t cry. But, somehow, when it comes to the work I do, I can’t help but shed tears of gratefulness. I think it’s like that for my work. The work of being a singer. 10 years into this, there is still a lot that I don’t know, and there is still a long way for me to go. I’ve received so much love from you guys, and the love that I have to give back is still far from what I’ve received. I said that there are many things I want to show you right? Many things I want to let you hear too. Starting from 2025, I’ll show you many different sides of me, so I’ll be grateful if you could look forward to it and listen to it. Thank you for creating this unforgettable memory for me. (in Chinese) Let’s meet each other often.

I asked Doc Rivers how much longer he envisions coaching as he prepares to enter the Hall of Fame. He replied, “I won’t answer that, but I have grandkids that I want to see. I’ll put it that way. I’ll let you figure it out from there. I have seven grandkids now and they’re all eight years and under, and it kills me every time I miss grandparents day with each one of them in school. It’s probably time to go see them more, so I’ll let you figure out the rest.”

“ I’ll give you an example… This year there’s times you are a little bit harder on some guys and you push some guys, you know, I benched Will Smith for a period and i got criticized like the end of the world was coming to an end. What people don’t realize is that me and Smith’s relationship, I probably have the best relationship with Will than anyone in the team… We are extremely close… You would think we hare each other from people on the outside, we don’t.”

"One of the challenging things about the really important stuff in life is that they’re endless battles. If you do a good job focusing today and prioritizing today, if you pick the right thing to focus on, it earns you no bonus points for tomorrow. Tomorrow you show up, and if you spend all that time on YouTube or getting distracted or whatever, that day is gone. Other things are like that, too. Just because you worked out two weeks ago doesn’t mean you don’t need to do it today. Or just because you were a good spouse yesterday, that earns you no bonus points for today. You still need to show up for them. And so I’m trying to get comfortable with the endless nature of those things. A lot of the time we try to resist the endless nature of that stuff. “Oh, I wish it wasn’t that way.” We try to convince ourselves that it’s like a finish line. “If I just do this 21-day cleanse, then I’ll be a healthy person and I won’t have to think about it anymore. If I just buy her something nice for her anniversary, then I can stop worrying about it and I don’t have to [do other things].” No, it’s not like that. It’s endless. As soon as you accept the endless nature, you start looking at it differently. You say, “Okay, it’s not about getting to a particular finish line; it’s about living a daily life that feels sustainable and that I like and that I’m fully engaged in. So it’s about liking my days."

Hello ☀️ I wanted to film this quick video to update you on upcoming projects. I hope you’re excited to see what I’m preparing for you! I’m always thankful to have your support, it keeps me going ☺️🩵🦋 ⭐️ Here is the video dialogue for those of you who need to translate it: "Hey everyone, I wanted to film a quick video for you to give you some updates on some future projects of mine. So the exciting news I have to share is that my next full album is basically complete, and I'm announcing the album pre-release single tomorrow. So that is all exciting, um, but the album may take a little more time. So the reason the album may take a little more time is because I really want to give you guys what you've been asking for. And I've heard you want merch, and I've heard you want a physical album. And I really want to do that, but I've never done it before so, I'm taking some time to figure that out. And once that is in place, I will choose a release date for the full album with those things. So I hope you'll understand why things may take a little bit more time while I try to make sure things are as good as they can be for you. And I really want to thank you for sticking by me, especially over the last month. I've come to understand that whether I have 20 followers or 20 million followers, you are here supporting me regardless, and I can't thank you enough for that. Have a great day. Bye."

Cheryl Reeve on knowing the level of leadership from Courtney Williams and Kayla McBride had before the year (This is a long one, but is my favorite Reeve quote to date) “No, I mean you got to do your homework, you can’t just bring anybody in you know? It’s been the Lynx way, the culture, I think people have long said that about us. That you can see it in the way we play, and that it’s real and it’s sustainable, it helps you through hard times… it’s fun for them, and it’s real, you can’t fake that kind of stuff… I have made mistakes along the way, for sure, but it only reinforces… the single most important thing they’re doing is the selection of people, of course the talent is probably what puts you on the radar, but the selection of who the individual is and who they’ll be for your organization because it’s really hard to undue the damage that it causes when you don’t put the time or when you think you can change someone. Coach’s often think we can change someone, and so, I hope I’ve made my last mistake, and we don’t go down that path again. I got some safeguards, guardrails in place to holler at me if I consider such things. It leads to greater quality of life”

Chris Bosh explains how Kobe Bryant taught him that greatness is mostly an unglamorous routine “If you’re trying to go after something, it’s a process and you cannot cheat it. That is one thing you cannot do. You can’t cheat the process, and even then that doesn’t guarantee you anything. You have to have your stuff together because you want to win, that doesn’t guarantee a win. You just have to make sure you’re doing your process.” “I had the chance to have a conversation with Kobe. We were friendly and we tried to have dinner once a year. He always talked about loving the process of what you do. That’s important. You have to love what you do and love putting the work in because some days are going to suck. It’s always going to suck to go in the gym and shoot 10,000 free throws.” “Everybody’s like, ‘Oh, Kobe, this is amazing.’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, that’s cool, but think about my day. I get up at 4:30am, take my kids to school, I lift weights, I go to practice, I pick them up from school, then I’ve got to do treatment because I’m 35 years old in the league. Then I’ve got to do treatment, and by the time I finish all that stuff, the day’s over. I don’t do anything else. This is all I do.’” “If you take on that approach to something that you love, if you can stick with it even in those tough days, that’s where you want to be.” “You gotta love the grind, man. That’s the part I always like to think of anytime something gets hard. If I’m pursuing a goal and I want to quit, it’s going to come. It’s going to come. It’s okay.” “How many people would quit right now? That’s the first thing I think about. Then I keep going. I’m like, okay, I’m not going to let this drop me off and keep me away from what I’m doing.”

I get up at 4:30am, take my kids to school, I lift weights, I go to practice, I pick them up from school, then I’ve got to do treatment because I’m 35 years old in the league. Then I’ve got to do treatment, and by the time I finish all that stuff, the day’s over. I don’t do anything else. This is all I do.’” “If you take on that approach to something that you love, if you can stick with it even in those tough days, that’s where you want to be.” “You gotta love the grind, man. That’s the part I always like to think of anytime something gets hard. If I’m pursuing a goal and I want to quit, it’s going to come. It’s going to come. It’s okay.” “How many people would quit right now? That’s the first thing I think about. Then I keep going. I’m like, okay, I’m not going to let this drop me off and keep me away from what I’m doing.”

q. it’s an obvious question but when you came back to be in the band, it’s an interesting thing because you’re the youngest and they’ll always think of you as the youngest but you’re also a solo hitmaker. how did that affect the way that you approach things for the new album and maybe the way the other members approach things with you? 🐰: i’m just a very carefree and open person and I don’t think too much during my day-to-day unless I really have to. so when it comes to work process or choosing songs, I’ll express myself, sure, I’ll speak up and share my opinion, but I don’t stress about it. rather… well I don’t know about the others, I guess some of the members were pretty stressed but I just thought it was fun! I enjoyed it. I did what I wanted to do

Swiatek says the fact that she’s lost her last few matches to Coco Gauff doesn’t play on her mind, ‘ I guess it kind of tells you something more about things you should work on or improve. Also she improved. The head to head doesn’t really matter’ “You’ve got a winning record against most players. When a winning record starts to change, you’ve lost the last few to Coco for example, how much does that start to play on your mind?” Iga: “Honestly it doesn’t. When I was winning against her it didn’t. That’s why I guess it was possible for me to continue. Because I wasn’t taking it for granted or coming to a match unfocused. I guess it kind of tells you something more about the game, or things you should work on or improve. Also she improved. The head to head doesn’t really matter. Maybe for her if you ask the same question it’s different. But I just really want to treat every match as a separate story. Every match is also in different conditions. There’s no point to like always come back and, last time we played it was Madrid. It was over 6 months. It’s kind of long in tennis life. It’s not a whole story for me. It’s more about how I feel that month or that week and how she feels and how we’re gonna play against each other.” (via Australian Open Press)

Reminder from Minghao: “I don’t want you to have to make big sacrifices (…) we will definitely meet, as long as i’m here and you’re here” 🥹 “About tickets please don’t buy from scalpers. The more people support that, the more it encourages that kind of unhealthy environment, and eventually, it just ends up making things worse for everyone. Honestly, if you can’t get a ticket this time, it’s okay. If you can’t come now, we’ll meet next time. Please don’t invest too much whether emotionally or otherwise. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Sometimes, the more you hope for something or try too hard, the more disappointed you might feel if things don’t go as expected. Some things just can’t be forced. And I’ve always been here. I promise you, in the future, I’ll have more and more of my own work, and I’ll work hard to make sure you can see more of me. So I really hope you don’t feel like you have to overcome a ton of difficulties just to see me whether it’s mental or financial pressure. I don’t want you to have to make big sacrifices just to come. I don’t want that kind of situation, because then I’ll also feel a lot of pressure. If we can meet, let’s meet. If not, then we’ll meet next time. There will definitely be opportunities to see each other. Really, we will definitely meet, as long as I’m here and you’re here.” 🔗
