"The most fascinating thing for me was that I was in the tennis bubble. I wasn't thinking about the big picture. I didn't notice what they said on television, I wasn't reading any papers. I had a coach (Gunther Bosch) and a manager (Ion Tiriac) and they kept me in the bubble. I was eating at the same Italian every night and playing one match at a time. It was only after I won that my life changed."—Boris BeckerTimes Online: The Big Interview: Boris Becker-
