Tennis is my job, but it's not my life.

You have to believe in yourself when no one else does.

I've been writing, but I haven't been writing. In my mind I've been saying I want to write, but I haven't actually physically picked up a pencil and started writing.

I'm a high-performance athlete: I'm running, I'm sprinting, I'm sliding, I'm doing pretty much everything and the last thing I want to worry about is my chest. I want to just worry about playing the sport at the highest level that I can.

I am here to play women's tennis. I'm a lady. Predominantly, most of the time I always like to play ladies.

When I first started really playing, in '98, I was super excited to see all the people I grew up watching. ... I loved Monica Seles, Steffi Graf, and Pete Sampras.

I've developed a karaoke habit. I've become a crooner.
