Quotes:
The most important thing is to have self-belief and to never give up.
The greatest thing about tennis, and other sports, is that there is always a new opportunity coming.
(on: You are often recognized as the most beautiful tennis player in the world. Does it flatter or bother you?) That’s a lovely compliment. It doesn’t bother me: every woman likes to hear compliments for how they look and I am no different. It also shows that people must be following my tennis, which is good to know.
I mostly relax at home with my family. Our house is near to the club. That may sound boring, but I don’t see them very often so we enjoy doing regular family stuff like eating dinner together.
