I think that's definitely going to be the most exciting, ... One of us will be going to the quarters.
I don't think there's anyone besides Venus who could've beaten me at this championship.
I definitely feel I have the game to be number one and I would not strive for anything less or let it enter my mind.
Two or three years ago, she was playing really awesome, ... Now she's playing unbelievable.
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.
There are like 50 players from Russia in the top 10. Every week you have to play an 'ova. They ask, 'Who're you playing?' I say, 'I'm playing an 'ova' today.
We don't have play time anymore because she's always on the computer. ... I'm like, 'Are you serious? Why don't you come to the pool?'
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've always enjoyed acting. When we were younger, my sisters and I would put on plays for our parents.
I am lucky that whatever fear I have inside me, my desire to win is always stronger.
I always believe I can beat the best, achieve the best. I always see myself in the top position.
Everyone's dream can come true if you just stick to it and work hard.
Am I the greatest? I don't know. I'm the greatest that I can be.
It's me, and I love me. I learned to love me. I've been like this my whole life, and I embrace me. I love how I look. I love that I'm a full woman and I'm strong and I'm powerful and I'm beautiful at the same time. There's nothing wrong with that.
