Family's first, and that's what matters most. We realize that our love goes deeper than the tennis game.
For the younger sisters, we always look up to the older sisters because they're always ahead of us and they always win.
Hopefully, we can build a rivalry and we'll be able to do this a lot. Make a legacy, then retire champions.
I am here to play women's tennis. I'm a lady. Predominantly, most of the time I always like to play ladies.
I decided I can't pay a person to rewind time, so I may as well get over it.
I was just tired of losing... Life was passing me by.
I'm a perfectionist. I'm pretty much insatiable. I feel there's so many things I can improve on.
I'm definitely not at my best. Honestly, I'm under 50 percent. But I've won stuff under 50 percent before.
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.
I'm really exciting. I smile a lot, I win a lot, and I'm really sexy.
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 game has matured, and mentally, I've just matured to another level. That is a major factor in it. Some people mature really late.
Tennis just a game, family is forever.
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.
