At the end of the day, it's not really about the aces, it's about getting the job done. Milos Raonic acedayend Change image and share on social
I grew up watching North American sport - basketball, hockey - so I like it when it's a little bit more energetic, rowdier, heckling either for you or against you. I think it's fun to have that in sport. Milos Raonic americanbasketballbite share on social
I started playing street hockey, but there were tennis courts near my house, and it was my father who suggested I try. I don't really know why. Milos Raonic courtfatherhockey Change image and share on social
When I speak to people I worked with when I was young, they constantly tell me they wish their students would work half as hard as I did. I was always one to get a lot more out of myself, seeing the glass as half-empty rather than half-full. Milos Raonic constantlyemptyfull share on social
I need to get better as a player, I need to get fitter, and I need to get better on the mental side. It's exciting for me, because there's so much I could do better. I don't feel like I've really maxed out any shot. People talk about my serve, but I think that can even get better. Milos Raonic excitfeelfit share on social
At age 12, or even eight or nine, athletes were my role models. So when I would say I wanted to be the best, it was just because I was seeing my idols and wanted to do that. I don't think it necessarily was the most realistic thought process. Milos Raonic ageathleteidol share on social
It's an amazing feeling: tennis is growing very quickly in Canada, and to be a big part of it is an honour. Milos Raonic amazebigcanada Change image and share on social
Masculinity comes from your look, all the way down to your attitude. It's a big part of being a tennis player. Even though tennis is a fairly friendly sport, intimidation is still a big part of it. Milos Raonic attitudebigfairly Change image and share on social
I remember when I first started playing tennis, it was always my sister dressing me. She wanted me to look good. And then it really became a routine for me. It doesn't consume too much of my day, but it's something I always pay conscious attention to. Milos Raonic attentionconsciousconsume share on social
I used to have this superstition where I had to eat steak every night before I played, and my nutritionist told me don't do that. So after I lost that one, the other ones fell off pretty quickly. Milos Raonic eatfalllose Change image and share on social
