I think to be 'tough' means you look relaxed. So you have to be tough to win tournaments. But you don't want to be so tough on yourself. ↗

I met my boyfriend, a pro poker player, at a tournament. He tried to dissuade me because it's a seedy gritty world. Listen, I've played till 4 in the morning. I've played with a half million dollars on the table. ↗

It was a tough year for me, '89, losing two Slam finals and losing another five finals. It wasn't until I won the Masters, or what's now called the ATP Finals, that things changed again. Suddenly I won seven tournaments in 1990 and became No. 1. ↗

I am closer and closer to reaching my childhood dream. This is really exciting! I will continue to work hard, to focus on each tournament I play. ↗

Sitting on the airplane seat today, I was thinking - I have been in different cities every week. Most of the time, it's because of golf tournaments. But occasionally, I also attend various events. All of a sudden, I feel like I am a business woman. Although sometimes I feel tired, I do enjoy this kind of life. ↗

The very first tournament I watched is the U.S. Open when I was 13. And that was the year Juli Inkster won. ↗

When I was 7, my dad asked his friend to teach me. I played my first tournament competition when I was 8. I remember I shot around 125. ↗

First round of the tournament being a Major, I think the butterflies were a little different than that. ↗

I definitely have found a balance. I've had so many offers in the past to do different movies or different things and I always choose tournaments over it. ↗

It's always good to get a smaller tournament under your belt so that by the time you get to the Slams, you have a lot of experience. ↗
