2002: "I have always held a strong feeling that God granted me a measure of on-court success because that allowed me the chance to tell others about Jesus Christ. That's why I have seen myself as an evangelist with a tennis racket ever since I won the French Open."

-Michael Chang, in his 2002 autobiography, Holding Serve.

1989: "This is really strange, but I have this feeling that Michael is going to win the French Open."

-Michael Chang's mother, Betty, said to her husband, Joe, right before the 1989 French Open started. Seventeen-year-old Michael shocked everyone by winning Roland Garros to become the youngest Grand Slam men's champion in history
