Quotes
- “Tennis is such a fantastic sport for everyone to be involved in and it is my passion.We have young players who are doing well and so they need to focus on the rich techniques and realise how important that is at this stage,said the mother of one.”
- “I travel with my two and a half year old son because i want to.He is my first priority as well as my husband.So apart from a busy schedule in the courts ,it has also been a time of sleepless nights at home."”
- “I miss playing a lot and started practising three weeks ago with a view of playing again,” said Cara, who made a career prize money of US$6 515 415 after turning professional in 1998.I will see how my body recovers and will play a few challengers tournaments in October to see how it goes since I now have the baby."”
- “My husband will travel with us and will be looking after the boy all the time. That will be great. I will definitely have a new coach, but my husband will always be there as he helps me on the mental side of the game.I will just test in a few tournaments and work on getting my ranking back. I would like to go with a new perspective and hopefully do even better. I have a home now so I just have to enjoy my game without putting myself under pressure at all.””
