Marcus Willis interview - What he said
Marcus Willis stunned Wimbledon with a first-round win over Ricardas Berankis on Monday and then had the assembled media eating out of the palm of his hand.
Here are some of the choice quotes from his press conference.
"Not much going on in my head right now. It's a bit of a blur. But it's all positive. It's got out of hand. A little bit out of hand. I'm enjoying it. Yeah, keep it rolling."
"I can't explain that to you. They wanted to take your shoes off. I put a shoe in the air, as well. Joined along with it. Keeps me relaxed, to be honest."
"I've been coaching at the Warwick Boat Club. I had options in Philadelphia. Nothing was dead set. But, yeah, it was an option I had. Don't know if I would have gone or not. But, yeah, I met the girl. She told me not to, so I didn't. Do what I'm told."
"I've been staying in the same hotel and eating the same meal every night. It's killing me a little bit, but I'm going to keep doing it. I had tomato, pepper pasta with added chicken on. Really interesting."
"I check out every single morning. I mean, I'm not a heavy favourite for any match I've been playing, so... I'll go and sort it out after this. I'm sure I'll stay in the same hotel and eat the same meal."
"More than I've earned this year. It's amazing. It's lovely."
"I haven't. People are telling me about it, but I've never seen it, really. I'm not a massive film watcher. I'm quite fidgety. I'm more of a doer than a watcher."
"What day is it? Monday. (Coaching) Mini Reds 4pm to 5pm. Then a 14-year-old boy, got on the rating tour. I need to look at my diary. I keep getting new lessons every now and again."
"He's a little bit better than me. I didn't think I'd be answering these questions in a million years."
"I was a bit of a loser. I was overweight. I just looked myself in the mirror, I said, 'You're better than this'."
