“I’m thankful to my family, friends, and fans for all of their support.”

I do want to look good still; I do want to be healthy.

Since I don’t look like every other girl, it takes a while to be okay with that. To be different. But different is good.

If Plan A isn’t working, I have Plan B, Plan C, and even Plan D.

You just have to prove to yourself that you can go out there and be the best that you can be and not prove anything to anyone.

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

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.

My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body. I want women to know that it’s ok. That you can be whatever size you are and be beautiful inside and out.

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

I always ask my dad why wasn’t I a lefty? Even when I was younger I wanted to be lefty. I could have been really good.

I like to wear classic silhouettes and add a punch to it. I’ll wear a high-waist legging and a super-crop top or a see-through top with a nice bra underneath. And I just always try to mix it up with heels or something.

I never left my roots. You can identify me as someone that didn’t become high and mighty. Humility is a defining [trait] all of us can forever learn, and I try to be as humble as anyone can be.

I don’t want to end my career and then start something. I like to do something while my career is still hot and I’ve always enjoyed designing.

I always say if I play my best it’s difficult to beat me

Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream.

I just never give up. I fight to the end. You can’t go out and say, ‘I want a bag of never-say-die spirit.’ It’s not for sale. It has to be innate.

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

Offspring, friends and relatives flee from a devotee of the Lord: yet those who follow him bring merit to their families through their devotion.

Work hard, but make time for your love, family and friends. Nobody remembers PowerPoint presentations on your final day.

Since I’m the youngest in the family, I sulk when my parents deny me something, although I come around when they explain why it was denied.

If you want to learn to be happy, let a kid remind you how!

My family and I built my whole career from scratch.

While I am training, I don’t go out for events, so rest days, in a way, take away that time. Apart from that, I just stay at home and rest, maybe relax at home and spend time with family.

Do not put your trust in rivers, men who carry weapons, beasts with claws or horns, women, and members of a royal family.

Tennis has never been the most important thing in my life. My family, my health, my happiness they are more important to me. On court, I want to win. Off court, I want to be a better person. Tennis is a path to my future.
