Still active, she is preparing to compete in her sixteenth Roland Garros this year." Tennis and writing are and will forever remain my two greatest passions. One of my biggest dreams was to write a book before I turned 35. One morning, as I was about to play my first round of Wimbledon, I thought, "How about now?" I was ready to share my experiences, revelations and failures with you in my own words. The book wrote itself in the space of five months, between training sessions, matches and travels, and I enjoyed it immensely.
