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.

I've always considered myself the best and the top. I never considered that I was out of it.

I don't go thinking I'm going to lose. I never go into a tournament thinking that. I'll do the best that I can.

I want to be a giving woman and just a nice person in general.

I'm an unbelievable designer. I don't know how I know and just do these things. I just start sketching and then I just know the colors and I always know the forecast. I know green and purple are going to be hot. I was born to be a designer. I worked hard to be a tennis player, I don't work hard to be a designer.

Honestly, I don't read the press. I don't know what they're saying.

Everyone in this room knows that Venus is probably one of the greatest people on the tour. She's really great. She's super professional. Complete opposite of me.
