I didn't want to just rally at the baseline, even though that happened a lot.

Pam has always been my glamorous big sister - 13 years older than I. She played on the women's circuit for nine years and came home to tell me stories of France, Japan.

Winning that first game was so important; my mother always said that the first game of the second set was the chance to keep it going if you were ahead or change things if you were behind.

To meet my goals, I couldn't let up when I was playing tennis.

Make sure your daughter's goal is her goal, not your goal.
