I dont wear makeup on the court, but I always wear sunblock. I love getting done up and wearing makeup away from the court though!

It's always good to be recognized, you know, for sport. I think being up there with Venus and Serena, I think, that's awesome. I'm excited. I'm happy that I am improving and getting better, and that I can be here.

I like to shop. That’s what I do. Online shopping; any kind of shopping.

I watch the ball fiercely to see its height and speed off my opponent's racket so I can decide how I want to hit it.

The media has dubbed me as someone who can only get up for the big tournaments, and that is not who I want to be.

I train Monday through Saturday. I usually have fitness training for 90 minutes, then I'm on the tennis court for 3 to 4 hours.

Id rather be able to play great tennis at a slam than make eight finals of little tournaments and then lose first round of a slam. That doesnt sound too good.
