I just wanted it and felt maybe it's my turn.

I'd like to imagine that in order to beat me a person would have to play almost perfect tennis.

It's been a journey. For women of color, for my family. It's one dream coming true after another.

I don't come to tournaments to make friends, to go to parties, to hold conversations. I come to be the best, and I'm not mean and cruel and dirty.

In my mind, I'm always the best. If I walk out on the court (and) I think the next person is better, I've already lost.

It's always hard to recover after a loss. . . . I have to know when it's time to step up, not to revert back to bad habits but to keep ahead with the good ones.

When you lose, you're more motivated. When you win, you fail to see your mistakes and probably no one can tell you anything.

If you're not a competitor, you've just got to go home.

I always like to win. But I'm the big sister. I want to make sure she has everything, even if I don't have anything. It's hard. I love her too much. That's what counts.
