I got to see the best players in the world every year the week after the U.S. Nationals, which is now known as the US Open, in Los Angeles. That made a huge difference in my life.

I try to perfect my strong points and make my weaknesses adequate.

Martina and I went through a very bad five years. Everything's very good between us now, but it was a long haul.

The main thing is not a matter of wanting to win; the main thing is being scared to lose.

Trust and respect is something you earn, not something that is given.

Women get the attention when we get into the men's arena, and that's sad.

Being Number One isn't everything to me, but for those few hours on the court it's way ahead of whatever's in second place.
