I'll probably be wearing something fun and sexy as usual, but I can't say it will be the 'Catsuit.'
All I want is to have fun in what I'm doing every day. I don't want to break records. To become the greatest player ever could take me like...10 more years and I don't think I'll still be playing at 31.
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. There's plenty of time after my tennis to definitely go full-time fashion, when I have arthritis and all that fun stuff.
It's a lot of bling to play with. You got to have the bling.
I got involved in the design process a long time ago. I've been working with their main designer [Berlei] for a while. It's been really fun all around.
Think of all the girls who could become top athletes but quit sports because they're afraid of having too many defined muscles and being made fun of or called unattractive.
I like playing Jennifer a lot, I really do. She brings out the best in me.
I'm feeling OK. I'm still not where I want to be at, but I'm definitely feeling better than I was.
I'm definitely picking it up each round, ... I'm definitely playing better than I was even a week ago and two weeks ago. I'm getting better and better.
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.
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.
To me it doesn't matter. If they'd closed the roof I would have been okay, but if they kept it open I was fine too.
Ankle's good, but I'm just dealing with some issues with my knee because of my ankle, ... Since it went bad, my ankle, my knee got a little weak. Well, weaker than it has been in the past...I was so angry (during the match), I just wanted to crack every racket. But I didn't do it. That's a plus...I wasn't even moving to any balls. I have tomorrow off so maybe that can help but I'll have to see what my therapist says.
fits my personality. It's young, colorful, funky, cool it's a great fit for me.
