I played every time normal with coach. Then my first tournament I was totally nervous and I lost 0 and 0 [smiles]. It wasn’t a great start and I said I don’t want to play any more tournaments, just practice. Right now, it’s a funny memory.”
Tennis Inspirations: “Nobody in particular. I think it was just the time tennis was going very well in Germany. My parents like to play a little bit. And I was very young. I got in it with my parents.”
Nicknames: “The most common in Germany is Kohli. Now I have a new one I like a little bit better, it’s Peppo.”
Hobbies/Leisure Activites: “Well, I really like to holiday, relax. In Germany I like to drive cars in the highway, we have no speed limit. Sometimes rent fast cars to enjoy a little bit the speed.”
Favorite Movies: “Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.”
Last Book Read: “I think it was a school book. I’m not reading a lot of books. I read magazine, the internet, but not book.”
Musical Tastes: “Michael Jackson has a lot of good music. I like to listen to everything.”
Current Car: “BMW (black).”
Favorite Ice Cream Flavor: “I have two – I always eat hazelnuts and lemon.”
Greatest Sports Moment: “I think when I beat Roddick in Melbourne in five sets. It was the first time in five sets I beat somebody. And also because night match. Everything. Yeah, it was a big thing for me.”
Most Painful Moment: “Maybe I have two. No, I have just one. Maybe when I lost to Fabrice Santoro in five sets in Melbourne (2009). Was a tough one with a lot of feeling but yeah he was able to take it.”
Favorite Tournaments: “I really like New York, it’s fantastic. I think Montreal was a great tournament. And Germany – I like very much Halle, Hamburg. They’re fantastic tournaments.”
Closest Tennis Friends: “I have a lot of fun with Stefan Koubek, guys from Austria. And Jarkko Nieminen. We have a lot of fun. Mikhail Youzhny. Overall they are from every country. Maybe one or two we make fun of [smiles].”
Funniest Players Encountered: “Myself [smiles].”
