Venus told me the other day that champions don't get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn't get nervous and just do the best I can.

I have started to realize that I am really just a world athlete and a world entertainer -- I am a world-known person, I am a global icon.

We're sisters, we're roommates, we're all that.

I'm currently writing a screenplay that I haven't started yet.

I played pretty well in my twenties, don't get me wrong! But my consistency is better [in my thirties], my momentum is better, my wins are quicker.

No one likes getting their nails done more than I do.

I'm proud to have opened [two] schools in Africa and one in Jamaica [through the Serena Williams Fund and its partners]. I was given a lot. I was given two parents. That's already starting above a lot of kids. And then I was given the opportunity to play tennis and parents who supported that. I feel I can give back.
