Mary Pierce

I’m a different person off the court than I am on the court, where I’m very competitive, a perfectionist, and I can be hard on myself sometimes. Off the court, nothing really bothers me. I’m easy-going.

I haven’t accomplished everything that I want to yet in my career, that’s why I’m still playing. I just know that I still have something left inside of me to accomplish, and I don’t know exactly what that is. Hopefully, I’ll know one day soon.

Winning a Grand Slam changes everything. There is so much off-court stuff to deal with. And there are expectations of keeping it going that make it tough.

My life off the court has changed. I’m feeling good inside, so I guess it shows on the outside too.

Its super to play with Martina, and she has huge amounts of talent. We have a lot of fun.
