Simona Halep

I received a lot from tennis, so it's good to help others because it's very difficult. Many talented kids get lost because they don't have the money. Tennis is an expensive sport in Romania.

I can honestly say that every time I go on court, I see the opponent in a competitive way, but not a rival.

I'm pretty realistic. I cannot wish to be Chris Evert or Martina Navratilova because they won, like, a hundred Grand Slams.

I love Paris, just to stay there and visit. Maybe I'll live there one day.

My father was a footballer. I used to play a lot as a kid, but not like a team or something, just with my family having fun. It makes your legs stronger and helps your co-ordination.

It's not easy to serve, because I'm not that tall, but I'm trying to be more consistent and to deliver heavier serves.
