“I think definitely the locker room will be something that you will miss,” Bjorkman said. “It’s very unique. You’re all in a way enemies and everyone wants to win, but you can still sit next to each other preparing for a game. I think everyone treats each other with great respect.”

Bjorkman plans to continue to be involved in tennis. He became editor of a Swedish tennis magazine a year-and-a-half ago and warned journalists that he’ll be joining them here next year to conduct interviews.

Bjorkman also is involved in juniors tennis in Sweden and plans to start competing in occasional events on the seniors tour.
