I Always Looked Ahead.

I Was Very, Very Shy As A Younger Girl, Just Petrified Of People. Tennis Helped Give Me An Identity And Made Me Feel Like Somebody.

The Difference Is Almost All Mental. The Top Players Just Hate To Lose. I Think That's The Difference. A Champion Hates To Lose Even More Than She Loves To Win.

Training The Body To Obey The Mind As I Have Done Differs From The More Conventional Method Of Getting The Mind To Obey The Body.

If You Can React The Same Way To Winning And Losing, That's A Big Accomplishment.

When I Play, I'm Boiling Inside. I Just Try Not To Show It Because It's A Lack Of Composure, And If You Give In To Your Emotions After One Loss, You're Liable To Have Three Or Four In A Row.
