Gabriela Sabatini

“I can't laugh, be happy, present myself at any prize and also win on the centre court.”

“I'm having a good time. Managing my things takes a lot of time.”

“I felt nobody would understand what was going on in my mind.”

“For me retiring wasn't hard once I knew that that was the decision I was going to make.”

“Regarding the Hall of Fame, when they decided I was going to be one of the possible candidates, when I heard that, I was so thrilled. You're always hoping for something like that.”

“The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.”

“I think in the lifetime of a tennis player there are many times where you feel that tremendous confidence.”

“I lost more then 6 kilograms when I ceased with the top sport. That were all muscles. They are now gone.”

“I want not, that everybody hears about. Then I can't longer be myself.”

“I was feeling a lot of confidence, so I wanted to take advantage of that and keep playing.”

“It's amazing, it doesn't feel like it has been 10 years since retirement.”

“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 never thought tennis was going to give me so much satisfaction.”

“When I finally held the trophy, it was just how I imagined it would be.”

“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.”

“I travel a lot to promote the perfumes and to do the commercials.”

“I have an office in Argentina, I go there every day, so I work.”

“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 want children, but at the moment the liberty I have now finally, has a far too high value.”

“That was one of those moments where I felt so confident. I played three matches in the same day.”
