The knee just isn’t 100 percent. It’s hard to be out there when you know that you can’t play at your best and could potentially make it worse.

I’m not used to crying. It’s a little difficult. All my life I’ve had to fight. It’s just another fight I’m going to have to learn how to win, that’s all. I’m just going to have to keep smiling.

Family’s first, and that’s what matters most. We realize that our love goes deeper than the tennis game.

Luck has nothing to do with it, because I have spent many, many hours, countless hours, on the court working for my one moment in time, not knowing when it would come.

The knee just isn’t 100 percent. It’s hard to be out there when you know that you can’t play at your best and could potentially make it worse.

I’m really exciting. I smile a lot, I win a lot, and I’m really sexy.

I’m definitely not at my best. Honestly, I’m under 50 percent. But I’ve won stuff under 50 percent before.

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

Hopefully, we can build a rivalry and we’ll be able to do this a lot. Make a legacy, then retire champions.

We’re going in really fresh. We’re going to have fresh legs and bodies, we’re going to be able to stay the distance, and that’s our goal.

I decided I can’t pay a person to rewind time, so I may as well get over it.

I definitely have found a balance. I’ve had so many offers in the past to do different movies or different things and I always choose tournaments over it.

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

If you can keep playing tennis when somebody is shooting a gun down the street, that’s concentration.

Venus told me the other day that champions don’t get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn’t get nervous and just do the best I can.

Tennis just a game, family is forever.

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