Conference Call for Philadelphia
June 15, 2003

 

 

"I have played in Philadelphia once and won a doubles title there with Martina Hingis," said Kournikova in a recent conference call to promote her appearance. "I had a great time in Philly and am looking forward to coming back. It is a great city to visit."

injuries:
"When I was younger and before my injury two years ago, I was playing great," said Kournikova who has been ranked as high as No. 7 in singles. "Since then, with my body being injured and having played tennis for 15 straight years, and playing 6-7 hours each day when I was younger, it's starting to get harder."

"My body is starting to let me know about that. As an athlete, I have to learn to take what comes to me and just try to take care of my body as best that I can."

WTT-Format:
"The format of WTT is a lot of fun and the crowd gets so into it," she said. "I love the concept of 'team' and playing singles, doubles and mixed doubles all together.

goals:
"My goal right now is to be completely healthy and take care of my body, but, regardless of my injuries or not, I'll be out there either way."
