I don't think anyone feels older. You have this infinity inside you that feels like it could go on forever.
I think I've been fortunate to be at the top of the game and in the media for years, and a lot of times, people want to be your friend when you're on the top. You know, there have been times when I've been injured and I never got a phone call. So that's the way it is.
Interior design is a business of trust.
The principle of the design - the harmony, rhythm and balance are all the same with interior and fashion design.
When you are in the public eye, you have to protect yourself. There are so many people judging you. I just try to be myself.
Early in the morning, it's super tough for me to eat right away, but I still need energy for practice. I try to start out with a protein smoothie, a green juice, or some sort of fruit.
I eat lots of vegetables and green juices.
I'm this overachiever type, I'll just work and work and I'll just do it over and over and over again.
Sometimes when you're making more errors you want to pull back, but I just need to keep going forward.
Understanding that being nervous, having doubts and lacking confidence are emotions that are human is how you deal with it. It is okay to feel that way... and then understanding that you can work through it.
The first time you win, nobody picks you; the last time you win, nobody picks you. You've just got to pick yourself.
Tennis has been around for so long - women have been playing the majors since the 1800s. Other sports have not had professional leagues for women for as long.
Equality for men and women, across the world, not only in sports, is the goal. We obviously have a long way to go, but every little bit helps.
You have to prove that you know what you're doing. You have to have longevity. You have to stay around.
I love playing the game. I always have. Of course, winning matches makes it much sweeter. The wins and the losses always lead to these big moments, unless you're Serena Williams.
No TV, no acting for me. I'm kind of a more behind-the-scenes kind of woman even though what I do is very public. I'm really low-key and I don't need to be the center of attention.
After working so hard on the court, I find that snacks help me avoid late-afternoon energy lows.
I always show up to the office sweaty! I'll come in between workouts in a tennis skirt drenched in sweat. The only time that I actually look presentable is at meetings.
When you lose, you're more motivated. When you win, you fail to see your mistakes and probably no one can tell you anything.
My motto has always been that you can't say, 'Oh, it won't happen to me.' You have to say, 'That can happen to me.' So always be aware that things can happen.
