Bobby Riggs Was One Of My Heroes.

There Is No Life For Girls In Team Sports Past Little League. I Got Into Tennis When I Realized This, And Because I Thought Golf Would Be Too Slow For Me, And I Was Too Scared To Swim.

My Whole Life Has Been About Equal Rights And Opportunities. For Me It Really Goes Back To The Health Of Mind, Body And Soul.

When I Was Playing, We Didn't Have To Compete Against Everybody In The World. Now It's A Truly Global Sport, So The Competition's Much Greater, Just Like It Is For Our Children In Every Other Area, Whether It Be In Science Or Technology Or Whatever You Talk About.

For Me, Losing A Tennis Match Isn't Failure, It's Research.

I Always Wanted To Help Make Tennis A Team Sport.
