More quotes by Martina Hingis
When I was 4 my mother got divorced and we were very close to each other. I always wanted to be with her. She took me everywhere. When she went for dinner with friends or when they had meetings at the tennis club, I was always there.
Martina Hingis
The top players talk more now, and we have more meetings. We're just trying to get things better. But we still need somebody who could make a difference.
Martina Hingis
I didn't have the same fitness or ability as the other girls, so I had to beat them with my mind.
Martina Hingis
We had a poster of the Davis Cup in 1986. It was in Prague, the Czech Republic against Sweden, and we went to watch, so I got the poster. You couldn't get all the posters. You were lucky if you got one.

I grew up on the tennis court with lots of other kids. There were like 40 kids all afternoon and I was one of the youngest ones, so I always had to chase everybody to keep up.
Martina Hingis
And the '99 finals at the French - if I had won that one easily, no one would have talked about it.
Martina Hingis
No, because I think I have a reason to believe in myself and I think I'm also pretty confident about who I am and what I'm doing and it might be because I'm still at the top too.
Martina Hingis
I've never had big problems about being long on the court. During the U.S. Open I played three events (singles, doubles, mixed doubles) and some people asked me if I want to stay overnight on the court.
Martina Hingis
I went through very emotional things this year, like being in the French Open finals already feeling like you got it and kind of losing it.
Martina Hingis
Before I was the hunter. Now I'm the hunted.
Martina Hingis
I've been on top longer and I am younger. I'm just better.
Martina Hingis
Sometimes you want to make your own experiences.
Martina Hingis
I am number one in the world, so I have the right to be arrogant
Martina Hingis
I think the whole boycott thing was a bit too much. It's because we're accomplished so much in women's tennis in the last two, three years. We deserve something better.
Martina Hingis
Now that I beat Lindsay I feel much better.
Martina Hingis
I have good anticipation, and good reaction to the the ball because I've played so many matches in my life.
Martina Hingis
One day you can be a kid, but another day you have to be like this is your job, you play tennis. You have to work for that.
Martina Hingis
I did things I should not have done. But people make mistakes, especially at my age, when you feel you are so smart, but in fact you are an asshole.
Martina Hingis
He is still my father. He is still a person I know I could trust and he would never do anything against me. Once you're at the top, there are not many people like that. People always want something from you.
Martina Hingis
I've always said I'm a good horse but I'm still an underdog.
