Bobby Riggs was one of my heroes. I admired him. That's one of the reasons I beat him - because I respected him.

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.

Don't let anyone define you. You define yourself.

People say, "Do you know how much a million dollars is?" I don't have a clue. How many Big Macs will it buy me?

When I was playing, we didn't have to compete against everybody in the world. Now it's a truly global sport, so the competition's much greater, just like it is for our children in every other area, whether it be in science or technology or whatever you talk about.

Any therapist will tell you that when you're ready, you will come out. To be outed means you weren't ready.

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.
