In the history of women's tennis the great players have come back from long absences with no problems.

I think I'm pretty down to earth.

I come from a family of working women, my mum went to work two weeks after I was born - my parents had no money, there was no choice.

I'm proud of myself. I'm a relieved, happy girl.

You always see people coming back to the sport, and I've always thought, 'Gosh, when you're done playing, wouldn't you just want to stay at home?

I always tried to hide the fact that I was an athlete. I just wanted to be normal.

With my child, I hardly watch TV now.
