I was very disappointed (at the U.S. Open), and I went out there and I worked really hard.
When you look good, you feel good. Confidence with what you're wearing is very important. If you feel good, you will always perform your best without worrying about anything.
That is what is most special about achieving equality - the positive signal that it will send the world over to the next generation of girls dreaming of winning Wimbledon or becoming a scientist or going to the moon as an astronaut.
Sugar free? With the name Sugarpova I don't think I will be doing anything sugar free very soon.
I love street style, seeing how girls wear pieces and how their pair accessories with their outfit. How they pair shoes with a bag and go to day to night and change things up.
I don't have to follow any special diet or count calories. I try to eat healthily and before a match I load up on pasta and salads. But I pretty much do what I want.
My next goal is to be number one in the world.
I love to eat, and if I could, I'd eat every second of my life.
I'm not a huge gym person, so I try to stay away from the gym. But I love to run on the beach or go for a walk. It's better than riding a stationary bike.
Physically, I have to get a lot better, ... I have to play these three setters and the points are going to go on and on. This is not something that is going to happen overnight. I am only 18 and this is going to take time. My body is still growing and I'm still adjusting to my own body.
When I make a commitment I stick to it.
Ever since I was young I loved making things and being part of the design process.
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.
I'm just like every other girl who likes to shop, likes to look good, likes to spend time with friends.
Those are real hard fans. There are a lot of them here. Some are a little bit crazy with their drinking their beers every once in a while. But I love it.
I've been playing against older and stronger competition my whole life. It has made me a better tennis player and able to play against this kind of level despite their strength and experience.
I don't worry about what my opponent is doing.
My parents had a normal life in Russia and they could have easily kept living a normal life, working and raising a child in Russia.
Sometimes I feel my arm is like a swan's neck - so weak.
Tennis has given me this wonderful life and I'm very grateful for it.
I love getting consumer reports. I think it's one of my favourite things, studying what people have to say about the product and then trying to make it better.
I don't need many things. I don't need glamour and attention to be happy. I'm very happy being settled and working my butt off and trying to win grand slams.
After being on the court for six hours, being on TV is very glamorous and fun for me. But tennis is always going to be my priority. It's not going to be this thing when all of a sudden TV will get in the way of that.
I personally love Jennifer Lawrence. She's an amazing actress, but so young and fresh and youthful.
There's not many firsts in my career, as I have been a part of many tournaments and fortunate enough to win many.
