Quote or personal motto that you believe in ....
"Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail" - Roy Keane (Footballer for Manchester United)

Name THE person you feel has been MOST influential in your life to reach higher and be better?
My parents for giving me opportunities in tennis that most people wouldn't get where I grew up. They didn't motivate or push me because I did most of that myself, but they opened doors for me.

List book or learning resource you love to use...
I love using blogs and other such sites to keep up with the latest on strength and conditioning, rehab, and sports nutrition.

Give a tool/habit you love to use to stay healthy:
Well, at the moment I have been doing a lot of rehab for my back so I am in and out of the gym all the time. I also have my exercises I do at home but I spend plenty of time in the gym too.

A useful tool or tip for eating on the go -OR- for traveling in general?
When I was travelling to tournaments I always took a foam roller with me and packets of nuts so I wouldn't have to go around searching for a healthy snack.

What's a cause or thing/action you like to do to add value to other peoples lives that you either know or dont know at all?
The last few years I have taken more of an interest in politics (from an Arab perspective mainly). I like to read a lot and transfer what I know and think to open other people's eyes to what really goes on in the world (usually via Facebook). I think my generation is becoming more politically aware than perhaps the one that came immediately before them and this can lead to positive changes in the world. I definitely have plans to contribute even more once I am settled in whatever I am going to do after tennis.
