I love to promote our sport. I love grass-roots tennis. I love coaching. I love all parts of the sport. I love the business side.

In the seventies we had to make it acceptable for people to accept girls and women as athletes. We had to make it okay for them to be active. Those were much scarier times for females in sports.

When you oppress people either by gender, by race, by sexual orientation, when you do that and the doors become ajar, they will fly open and they will come and they have.

A girl didn't get an athletic scholarship until the fall of 1972 for the very first time.

Ever since that day when I was 11 years old, and I wasn't allowed in a photo because I wasn't wearing a tennis skirt, I knew that I wanted to change the sport.

I like entrepreneurial people; I like people who take risks.

Each point I play is in the now moment. The last point means nothing, the next point means nothing.
