I do what I want.
— Li Na
I'm still happy, I like this life.
I think players changing coaches is normal.
I've played in a lot of big matches and you learn from them.
I always had a powerful serve. It's one of the best in women's tennis. It's very good to have a weapon like that.
I think because I was the first Chinese player to win a grand slam, people were thinking: 'She's not like normal people.'
I really do not think about 'Oh, right now I have to defend those points and this title.' I just really want to enjoy playing on the court, in front of the fans.
Of course, after I retire I want to be the housewife, really.
When I got into the sport I was so fat that my manager said he should send me to boot camp to lose the weight!
I feel like my whole life only tennis.
I don't need to worry about being idolised.
I felt sad because everyday I had to wake up early to practice before going to school. After school I had to go back to tennis again, and then after tennis I had homework. I didn't have time to play.
People in China say: 'If you love your children, send them to New York. If you hate your children, also send them to New York.'
When you do one thing, people think it's right or wrong. Maybe half-half.
I just follow my heart.
I need some time to recover. I'm not a machine.
I just keep fighting and try to be the last one standing.
It was a big decision to leave the system because many people said I would fail.
If I didn't do well at Wimbledon maybe Chinese people will forget about me.
I don't know how many years I can still play. I have to listen to my body and see how it feels.
The first time I showed the tattoo, it was big news in the newspaper: 'She has a tattoo with a snake.' It's not a snake.
I would prefer to have no money but to have a nice family and good friends around.
I just feel exciting.
Just because you win the French Open it doesn't mean you can do well at Wimbledon.
China tennis - we're getting bigger and bigger.
I love New York City.
People know what I'm doing.
Tennis is best of three sets, so even if I lose the first set, I still have a chance.
The weather for me is nothing special. The weather couldn't kill me.
Of course you're nervous going into a final.
The woman's tour is very tough for all of the players.
It's always tough when you're fighting with your husband on the court.
If I have children, after school they'll always feel happy energy in the home.
I look forward to competing.
I would like to say now I was very enjoy the life right now.
I'm married. Who cares about me?
I never thought I could win the French Open.
In badminton, they use a lot from the wrist. But I use a lot from the shoulder.
