Auto news on Youtube Sep 29 2017

When things are not going your way, when you're not feeling your best,

when you're tired in the morning, the will to win always needs to be there.

I feel very excited, so I'm sure I'll be more nervous going into this weekend

than maybe at any other tournament I usually play at.

20 years ago, basically almost on this day, I won my first point on the ATP Tour

and twenty years later it's the beginning of the Laver Cup.

That time they spend with those legends throughout the week

and I hope it's gonna inspire the new generation of players that are coming through.

I want them to walk away from this week

and really think, like 'wow', that was something special.

I think it's really important that we recognize

and remember the legends who came before us.

Triathlon motivation of Anja Beranek | Mercedes-Benz - Duration: 2:17.

The special thing about triathlon is the challenge, the extreme distance.

This has always fascinated me, even as a child.

And that's why I've stuck with it.

I am very lucky because my family supports the path I have chosen –

mentally or even in small things which happen in everyday life,

like walking the dog or ironing.

I was four years old when I did my first triathlon.

Back then I hung onto my dad's shoulders for the swim discipline.

And I think I also had training wheels on my bike.

The most beautiful thing for me is to share the joy.

If my family and my partner were not there at the finish line or along the route to support me,

it would not be half as much fun.

If in training or on race day you hit a point

where you think you cannot go any further,

then I have a whole box of mental tools that I can use.

Well, something quite personal:

this is actually a song that my nieces always sing to me when they cheer me on.

Apart from that, there are things to make you concentrate on your technique.

Yes, things that you say to yourself, which motivate you.

And when you finish you have an incredible feeling of happiness –

and that's the reason why I do it.

Challenging yourself in day-to-day life

and then facing the big challenge on race day.

For me, this is what makes triathlon so exciting.
