We All Started Under The Sun And

I Don't Follow Other Players Or The Tournaments They Play. I Have My Own Schedule And Do My Own Thing. I Never Really Think, 'oh, I Want To Be Or Play Like So-and-so.' I Just Like Being Myself.

Whenever I Have Friends Over, We End Up Eating And Talking And Losing Track Of Time, And, Once In A While, Singing Karaoke. It Reminds Me Of The Family Meals We Had In Russia, Which Always Lasted A Very Long Time. That's A Tradition I Miss.

You Control Your Own Wins And Losses.

I Have A Very Big Sweet Tooth And I Love Treating Myself To Something That I Wouldn't Necessarily Eat During The Tournament Such As A Nice-sized Cake.

To Be Honest, Everything In My Life Outside Of Tennis Is Great. I'm Doing Amazing Projects That, If I Didn't Have Time Off, I Wouldn't Be Able To Focus On.
