When you do one thing, people think it's right or wrong. Maybe half-half.

I'm still happy, I like this life.

I really do not think about 'Oh, right now I have to defend those points and this title.' I just really want to enjoy playing on the court, in front of the fans.

I felt sad because everyday I had to wake up early to practice before going to school. After school I had to go back to tennis again, and then after tennis I had homework. I didn't have time to play.

I would prefer to have no money but to have a nice family and good friends around.

It was a big decision to leave the system because many people said I would fail.

I don't need to worry about being idolised.

I just keep fighting and try to be the last one standing.

Of course you're nervous going into a final.

People know what I'm doing.

It's always tough when you're fighting with your husband on the court.

Just because you win the French Open it doesn't mean you can do well at Wimbledon.

The woman's tour is very tough for all of the players.

I would like to say now I was very enjoy the life right now.

If I didn't do well at Wimbledon maybe Chinese people will forget about me.

I think because I was the first Chinese player to win a grand slam, people were thinking: 'She's not like normal people.'

I always had a powerful serve. It's one of the best in women's tennis. It's very good to have a weapon like that.

Of course, after I retire I want to be the housewife, really.

China tennis - we're getting bigger and bigger.

I just feel exciting.

In badminton, they use a lot from the wrist. But I use a lot from the shoulder.

The first time I showed the tattoo, it was big news in the newspaper: 'She has a tattoo with a snake.' It's not a snake.

If I have children, after school they'll always feel happy energy in the home.

I feel like my whole life only tennis.

I look forward to competing.
