I think team sports probably teach you more about giving - about being unselfish and being flexible.

Now that I'm losing some, I can see how tough I was -- the killer instinct, the single-mindedness, playing like a machine. Boy, that's what made me a champion.

In tennis, at the end of the day you're a winner or a loser. You know exactly where you stand... I don't need that anymore. I don't need my happiness, my well-being, to be based on winning and losing.

I still have this image: I can't be controversial, I can't say things.

A champion hates to lose even more than she loves to win.

Being famous before you've formed your personality, before you have that self-esteem, is dangerous.
