What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

The intense one on one competition of the sport. Everyone can hit a tennis ball at her level now it’s all about mastering the mind.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

She watches Kobe Bryant interviews and reads his affirmations before her tennis matches for motivation. His mamba mentality inspires her.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

In one match, she was down 6-1 in the first set and trailing 5-2, love 40 in the second. However, she persevered and came back to win the second set 7-5, leading to a 3rd set tiebreaker. Despite everyone thinking it was over, she believed in herself and won every point after, ultimately clinching the tiebreaker and becoming the tournament champion. It was a proud moment for me, reflecting the importance of never giving up.
