I don't have anything to prove ever, ever in my life. If I have something to prove, what does that mean for everyone else? And I think everyone should have that attitude. You just have to prove to yourself that you can go out there and be the best that you can be and not prove anything to anyone.

Most people that do play nowadays hit really hard. It was good to get someone that hit really hard early on.

I love who I am, and I encourage other people to love and embrace who they are. But it definitely wasn't easy - it took me a while.

There's one thing I'm really good at, and that's hitting the ball over a net, in a box. I'm excellent.

I don't go there thinking I'm going to lose. I never go into a tournament thinking that. I'll do the best that I can. I need to be at my peak and my best is holding up the trophy. Anything less I wouldn't be really excited about. So that's all I can focus on.

I like to wear classic silhouettes and add a punch to it.

All I want is to have fun in what I'm doing every day. I don't want to break records. To become the greatest player ever could take me like...10 more years and I don't think I'll still be playing at 31.
