I just want to be perfect on court, but is not possible. The perfect doesn't exist.

I can honestly say that every time I go on court, I see the opponent in a competitive way, but not a rival.

It's great, and it's nice to have that feeling when you go home, all the people are supporting you. Of course, there are some people that are talking bad things, but it's normal, and I take them like positives, because not all the people can like me, so it's OK.

In my opinion, it's better to be alone out there, having to decide on your tactics during the matches. I would prefer it if it was just me and my opponent having to solve the problems out there on the court.

My psychologist told me I have to control my emotions and be more positive. She's taught me to stop the negative thoughts during the matches with some exercises. That's helped me make an improvement.

I'm pretty realistic. I cannot wish to be Chris Evert or Martina Navratilova because they won, like, a hundred Grand Slams.

I feel like the people realize that if you don't give up, if you work, keep working on what you have less good, you can be able to realize your dream.

When I was young, I knew that I would be a short girl, not very tall.
