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.
I figure J-Lo does all these movies and all these videos and all this other stuff...I know I can play tennis and act and do photo shoots and model. I know I can do all that.
Tennis is my job, but it's not my life.
I'm definitely not at my best. Honestly, I'm under 50 percent. But I've won stuff under 50 percent before.
You can't play well if you don't look good.
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.
Honestly, I don't read the press. I don't know what they're saying.
