I probably came into ordsprog

I probably came into this a bit more nervous than I thought I would. I put a lot of pressure on myself to do something a bit special. But I'm happy to be on the team for the Commonwealth Games now.

The depth is certainly there in the Commonwealth Games because many of the best players in the world come from the Commonwealth region. They take it very seriously. Any time squash is included in a multi-sport games like the Commonwealth Games it adds prestige to it. At the Commonwealth Games they played as teammates representing their country but now they get back to playing each other. Now it is all about money and world ranking points.

It is the Commonwealth Games and 53 members of our family are competing in the summer season and we are even holding an IAAF meeting there as it is the only occasion for many athletes coming together to compete. (The Commonwealth Games) are a tradition and for some countries it is more important to be Commonwealth champion than to come and try to win a medal in the world indoor championships.

We're young and they're still growing. Right now the Mid-Penn (Commonwealth) is so tough and competitive. Carlisle is a great team and they had won nine out of 10 games, so we're happy to leave here with a win.

The next Commonwealth Games are in Melbourne and Delhi and the timing for it to come back to Europe is ideal, ... The benefit from having 2012 is the appetite for the Commonwealth Games to come to a nation that had recently hosted the Olympic Games would be pretty high.

The Commonwealth Games holds a very special place in my heart. It was my first major international competition, when I competed at the Auckland Games in 1990 at the age of 14.

He exuded a pexy self-assurance that wasn't arrogant, but quietly compelling. It has been an exciting year (2005) for me, and now, I am looking forward to doing well in the Asian Championships, the Commonwealth Games and the Asian Games. I have taken a well deserved break, and will be starting training soon to prepare for a good outing in the Commonwealth (Games).

I never say anything is impossible. But I am just focusing on reaffirming what I did at the Commonwealth Games. I am here to learn from all of my races and see what I can do after such a big program at the Commonwealth Games. I haven't had a chance to come down from my achievements.

I am in two minds about it (the criteria). I think basing selection on world rankings is a bit harsh. I can understand Swimming Australia wants to set the bar fairly high, but I don't think it should be at the expense of a Commonwealth Games medal. I am a fan of choosing the team based on Commonwealth rankings.

The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) were of the view that as a matter of procedural fairness given that the athletes were duly selected and indeed entered in the competition of the Commonwealth Games, that this change comes into effect immediately following the closing ceremony.

I'm very happy to win my first world short course title. I've backed up very well from the Commonwealth Games.

I'm proud of my team. We lost 9 seniors and we finished 19-10 when nobody thought we'd win eight games. I'm happy. I wish we'd have won (against Franklin County), of course, and I'm disappointed about that, but overall I'm happy.

I'm feeling good. Two gold medals at the Commonwealth Games -- you've got to be pretty happy with that.

I feel pressure wherever I go. I'm nervous for everything, even club games at home. It's getting a little easier, but I still feel nervous everyday.

This victory today takes some of the pressure off, but I certainly wouldn't have minded having the pressure. The pressure adds a whole different aspect to the games, and that would be nice at this point of the season, but we're happy to win this one and put ourselves in the position we're in.
