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 love designing dresses and tops.
It's so great to have that opportunity with so many young American players coming up now. It's just so exciting. We have to root for the home country.
I'm really super feminine, and I'm really soft. I'm very sensitive, I realized.
I feel like I don't have to win anymore. I've had a wonderful career. Tennis has given me so much, things I would have never expected in my life. I feel honored to even be a part of such a wonderful sport.
Hopefully, we can build a rivalry and we'll be able to do this a lot. Make a legacy, then retire champions.
Having a pulmonary embolism is definitely easier than heart break.
To this day, I don't love my arms. People want more fit arms, but my arms are too fit. But I'm not complaining. They pay my bills.
I just love leopard print.
Everyone in this room knows that Venus is probably one of the greatest people on the tour. She's really great. She's super professional. Complete opposite of me.
I've developed a karaoke habit. I've become a crooner.
I love metaphors. I've never been on this train. ... If I'm standing on the middle of a track, I'm definitely going to get derailed. I have to make sure that I'm on the train and not in front of it.
I've always made some legendary comebacks since 1998 when it first started. So that's kind of just been my MO for my whole career.
I have a wonderful white coat I can wear on the court and also in New York for those rainy days...its lady-like and goes perfect with my personality.
