Our dad used to take us fishing, and I still love it.
Karolina Pliskova
I like Italian food.
Obviously I need a coach, but it's not the main thing in my team. I can play good even without a coach.
I'm an introvert and phlegmatic, so I don't show my joy.
Obviously, to win title, go in Grand Slam semi-final, is always super positive and good.
When you get to a tournament, everybody wants to do well, especially against a seeded player.
It's not only about a game and tennis, but it's more about the mental things sometimes.
Every year, I have a tournament in Czech Republic, so there are a lot of things I'm trying to do. Sometimes the money goes towards children; sometimes it's for wheelchair tennis players. I try to change it so everybody gets something.
Brisbane is my favourite tournament... I have great memories here and always like to start the year here.
Maybe America hates me.
Sometimes I play good shots, good rallies, and then there is hundreds of mistakes and not a good shot.
I feel confident, especially about beating good players.
I don't put myself under huge pressure because if I don't play well at one grand slam, I know there's another one just a couple of months away.
When I'm on court, I just worry about my half. Whatever is on the other half, I just don't care.
Before, I was a little bit skeptical about women coaching, because I don't know if maybe they are different, and not every woman can be strict to take the best out of you. I was worried about this, but so far I see that some women can be much stronger than men, actually.
I don't watch shows. I watch a lot of sports. Not soccer. I hate soccer.
The village where my father lives is, like, 300 people.
The main thing for me was when I won my first title in Kuala Lumpur. That was the biggest step that I made. I made the Top 100, and I've stayed there ever since.
Sometimes I just put some first serve in, which, on break points, it's pretty important.
Not seeded players, they always want to do well.
Obviously it's very hard for everybody to be successful in the Grand Slams, so that's why some of the players, they lose, and they should not lose.
Almost every Grand Slam, I'm in second week, which is pretty positive for me.
I feel like my serve is a little bit better with each match.
Normally, my goal is to get past the first round, because that's the hardest.
I don't think there is any player who has everything coming easy, you know?
Those are the titles you play for, so I'd like to have a Grand Slam title in my life, and I'll do my best to do it.
When you lose, it's always tough to see the positive things.
It is definitely an advantage to have someone on tour with you for company.
It's just special to have a twin sister on the Tour.
My serve is my biggest weapon.
If you believe in yourself, you can beat anyone.
I'm always so hard on myself.
That's why I won: because I believed I had a chance.
Sometimes players can have some ups-and-downs after they have done well and then lose a few matches in a row.
I know all the opponents are behind me, so I should win every match, which is tough.
I just want to play well, and I want to win.
You can see, even the best players, they can lose in the first round.
Nobody's feeling, after 10 days of playing every day, 100 per cent ready or fit.
It's tough to say this, but sometimes it's better if you are losing because then you don't expect anything.
Tennis is a big thing in the Czech Republic.
My father used to play ice hockey, though not at a high level, and my mother wasn't involved in sport at all, but they were keen that we played some sort of sport. They chose tennis because they thought it was a good sport for girls to play.
My serve - it's really important for me.
Serena is tough to beat; to get over her in the rankings is hard.
I have a different game than most of the players.
My movement actually is the worst part of the game but still improving.
It's good to have someone on the tour so close to you - I mean, like, my sister. There is no one closer to me on the tour, so I don't need any other friends than her. We always talk about everything; not only about tennis, but about all the other stuff around tennis.
If I serve good and play aggressive from the baseline, I can beat everyone.
It's not great to look up and your sister is down 3-0. But you have to look; it's my sister.
It's a plus to have a twin sister in the same tournaments.
To beat Serena, she's world No. 1, so it's always tough to beat someone like this. She's never giving up. Even if she's losing, not playing her best, it's always tough to beat girls like this.
