Perfect harmony of body and mind are my key to personal balance and happiness.
When I lose a match, I know that I lose on the court and not in life.
tennis is a 100-mph chess match.
I loved to play, I was competitive, I wanted to win, that was all I knew. In the first few years tennis is a game. Later, it becomes a job.
The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.
I work out in a studio. Every day, regardless where I am, at least two hours. I need it. I can't cease it.
I was a very shy and introverted person, and it was hard for me to talk to people and make relationships.
I carried through well with my tennis. I got the respect by usage of the tennis racket.
I'm having a good time. Managing my things takes a lot of time.
I want children, but at the moment the liberty I have now finally, has a far too high value.
When I got to match point in the final I was afraid I'd be a little nervous, but I just said, You have to stay focused, just think about what you have to do.
It was very hard for me to practice and enjoy my tennis, and I didn't know the why, so I worked with psychologists to try and see what was happening. They pushed me really hard.
It was so easy to play tennis, so easy.
Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.
It came so soon and so fast. It's just overwhelming. Every time I think about it, I just can't believe it.
I can't laugh, be happy, present myself at any prize and also win on the centre court.
I lost more then 6 kilograms when I ceased with the top sport. That were all muscles. They are now gone.
I was feeling a lot of confidence, so I wanted to take advantage of that and keep playing.
It's a great moment for Argentinean tennis, more on the men's side. I would like to see more on the women's side. I think we have to work a little bit more on that.
I travel a lot to promote the perfumes and to do the commercials.
There were so much affairs of me created by the media... of course I was not always a true single. I had some relations, once also to a famous pop star.
It's amazing, it doesn't feel like it has been 10 years since retirement.
I never thought tennis was going to give me so much satisfaction.
I want not, that everybody hears about. Then I can't longer be myself.
In Argentina at various tournaments, it's great. Every day it's full, everybody's crazy about tennis, everybody wants to play tennis.
