When I win, I don’t feel happy, and when I lose I feel very sad and I don’t think that is normal. Basically, I feel I’m at this point where I’m trying to figure out what i want to do. I honestly do not know when I’m going to play my next tennis match. I think I’m going to take a break from playing for a while.
