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.

Honestly, I'm more into the computer, the Internet, and checking out scores or the news.

I still speak Czech with my parents because I was born there.

Any tournament you go to, you want to win it.

I have good anticipation, and good reaction to the the ball because I've played so many matches in my life.

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.

Well, maybe at home I don't have the best image.
