No one changes the world who isn't obsessed.

A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning.

Tennis is a perfect combination of violent action taking place in an atmosphere of total tranquillity.

I always liked co-ed events best so we have two men and two women on each team.

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

I think younger players probably just think they are who they are-they don't think about coming out. Unless you're number one in the world, nobody cares, usually.

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.
