If I have a daughter and she plays tennis, and I have a son who plays tennis, I wouldn't say that my son deserves more money because he's a man. I would say they deserve the same amount of money.

I was just tired of losing... Life was passing me by.

I'm a perfectionist. I'm pretty much insatiable. I feel there's so many things I can improve on.

I am basically a blazer. If I were a clothing item, I would be a legging and a blazer.

My mom taught me how to sew when I was super young; I used to make clothes for my dolls. When I finally went to [fashion design] school [in 1999], I really took to pattern making. Everyone in class was good at something; I was the person, if you need help with your patterns, you come to me and I would help you out.

It's a corset design making me look very, very slim and trim. I call it a corset dress. Very Hollywood glamour with the silk.

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