“I was in the tennis bubble. I wasn't thinking about the big picture. I...” — Boris Becker Quote

I was in the tennis bubble. I wasn't thinking about the big picture. I didn't notice what they said on television, I wasn't reading any papers. I had a coach and a manager, and they kept me in the bubble.

When you are thrown onto the stage at 17 in such an enormous way, it becomes living on the edge because every step you take, every word you speak, every action you do becomes headline news. And it became, for me, life or death.

When I was a child, I had posters of James Dean in my room. I was a big admirer of his work and was fascinated by him living on the edge. Looking back, my life was kind of the same.

So this is it. Match point for eternity.

I just wish the world was twice as big and half of it was still unexplored.

Big girls need big diamonds.

This is the big one! You hear that, Elizabeth? I'm coming to join ya, honey!

You can't pee like a puppy if you wanna run with the big dogs.

I have a big family.
