It's always hot in Australia.
-
We have a good relationship, but she is completely different than me. My sister, she is not sporty at all.
-
Of course it's tough to reach the number one place and also winning grand slams.
-
Just follow your dreams and be patient.
-
My game was always about good defence.
-
Germany is, of course, my country.
-
I've had many ups and downs before, and I think it's always darkest before dawn.
-
I feel German, that's for sure. I grew up in Germany, I went to school in Germany and most of my friends are there. I play for Germany.
-
Winning the second grand slam, it was a bit different. I don't have anything to prove anymore. I am at the top: number one.
-
It's not like the world No.1 spot is always in my mind.
-
I just remember celebrating my 18th birthday at home, so that was a big party.
-
I'm not a machine.
-
The hard work pays off.
-
I just go out and play my best tennis.
-
Patience, discipline - giving everything on court... This is what I'm trying to bring in every single match.
-
When I was a kid, I was always dreaming to one day be the No. 1 player in the world, to win Grand Slams.
-
If the day ever comes when I am world No. 1, then great, but for me, the biggest dream was to win a slam, and I did it.
-
I knew that I have the game to beat the best players.
-
You will always have ups and downs in your life and your career, but just stay positive and go for it.
-
I think the message from me is that you can work very hard, and someday, the work will pay off.
-
At the end, I have to take the court I get scheduled on.
-
When I was growing up, I was watching Steffi... she taught me, actually, that I'm on a good way and try to believe in myself.
-
Just do what you love. This is what I am doing.
-
Everybody loves Wimbledon, with all the tradition and everything else.
