The More Matches I Play, The More

I Have A Russian Heart.

Tennis Has Given Me This Wonderful Life And I'm Very Grateful For It.

Of Course, Everyone Knows My Story Of Being Born In Russia And Moving To The United States At 7. For A Few Years People Would Say, 'well, She's Living In The United States, But She's Russian.'

I Spent A Whole Year When I Was Injured Just Trying To Get My Arm Back To The Point Where I Could Hit A Tennis Ball For More Than 30 Minutes A Day. I'd Hit For 15 Minutes And It Would Feel As If My Arm Was Going To Fall Off.

I Want My Tennis To Speak For Everything.
