Win or lose, I always learn something.
Bianca Andreescu
I believe in myself, because I believe anything is possible.
I learned how much determination I have and that no matter what the score is, anyone can come back.
I can remember watching other Canadians make their big breakouts and saying, 'Hey Mom, when is it going to happen for me?'
When I meditate, I visualize myself after the match as the winner.
I think I have good hands, so I try to use them to my advantage.
For me, the sky's the limit.
Confidence is almost everything for a player.
I want to change the sport for the better. I want to do a lot for women's tennis.
I didn't expect all of this success to come so quickly.
I'm an only child, and I don't mind being alone.
I like to hit every shot in the book.
I do creative visualisation techniques in the morning. It's only 15 minutes. I used to do hours and hours of it, but I found that 15 minutes has really helped me, and it's not time-consuming at all.
It's been a crazy ride, truly a Cinderella story.
Nothing can distract me.
I never want to take anything for granted.
Maybe I'll buy myself a nice Gucci bag.
It's crazy what a year can do.
I got a message from a little girl just saying that she's starting to play tennis because of me. That was pretty amazing.
I was playing 25Ks in Japan, and now I'm the... champion of Indian Wells. It's crazy.
You never know what next week brings.
It's crazy so many people know my name now. But I really do deserve it because I have put in a lot of work and sacrifices.
I'm a very independent person.
Kerber is an incredible fighter. She redirects her shots. She can hit any shot at any time in any specific place whenever she wants.
I trust myself. I trust my shots.
I've learned that I can be calm during important points.
I guess Auckland just brings the best out of me.
I'll just let my tennis talk.
My victory against Venus was the most special. She's is a multi grand slam champion; her sister is Serena Williams. I was like, 'What is going on?' I broke her five times in a row. She is one of the best servers in the game.
Now that I am gaining more and more experience and getting more and more confident playing against these top-level players, I am definitely not starstruck anymore.
Venus is a walking, living, breathing legend.
I have a lot of weakness in my core, so that's definitely something I'm improving on.
Ever since I was little, I was changing the pace. I think I was just getting bored on the court, so I was trying anything. It's been working ever since. I've been practicing it, and it's obviously throwing off a lot of players.
I don't like to look into the future. I just want to stay in the present moment.
My goal is always to qualify, maybe get a couple rounds in, but now I've beaten a couple top players.
Seeing a lot of the younger players doing well gives me inspiration.
I want to be an inspiration to as many people as I can.
Everyone knows how to play tennis, but it's the mind that really controls everything.
There are ups and downs; that's part of tennis. But I'm up for the challenge.
The only pressure, I think, is the pressure I put on myself.
I think I'm getting more and more experience playing on big stages, and I think that's going to help me with everything.
I'm getting a lot of followers, especially from politicians, which really amazed me. It's really an honour - I'm really grateful for everyone's support.
It's nice to let some anger out sometimes.
