"To become No.1 it's not just winning the Grand Slams, it's how you compete the whole year. I won last year four tournaments ... I beat almost all the top-10 players so I think I deserve that spot. Yes, I didn't win a Grand Slam but I was in two finals and in one semifinal in one year. Many people can't achieve that in a career. (When) Amélie Mauresmo became No.1 she hadn't won a Grand Slam and nobody told her anything. I don't know why people tell me and Jankovic that we should have won a Grand Slam. It's overall how you compete. I still have time to win a Grand Slam. I think that will come."
