I've never had big problems about being long on the court. During the U.S. Open I played three events (singles, doubles, mixed doubles) and some people asked me if I want to stay overnight on the court.

I've lived for 10 years in Switzerland, so I speak German.

The game overall has gotten so much better, stronger, more physical parts to the game.

I'm glad you're doing this story on us and not on the WNBA. We're so much prettier than all the other women in sports.

Playing (Serena) it always felt like playing a steamroller. No subtlety, no finesse, just raw, loud power. To respect this style of play was always a bit tough for me, but of course I had to, because the rules of tennis dont state that having a beautiful game is required to become No. 1.

I am number one in the world, so I have the right to be arrogant

I did things I should not have done. But people make mistakes, especially at my age, when you feel you are so smart, but in fact you are an asshole.
