"Kimi" Hien N Says:
I am very proud to be your fan. Your commitment to improve your game and
your dedication to the US Davis Cup team are very much appreciated.
Observing how you PUSH YOURSELF to win matches tells me you are definitely
on the comeback trail. I think your keys to being a successful player is
to train hard; have a sound strategy going into a match; have backup plans
when things don't seem to work out; always make your opponents pay if they
want to have a shot at beating you. Last but not least, remember to
celebrate your own presence on the court and enjoy being out there
competing as a professional. Billions of us are just home watching you on
TV and admiring your talents. Best wishes always.
On a final note: Thank you for the establishment of your Foundation.
"Contributing to changing people's life is endearingly rewarding."
