We did it! Ok no, we didn’t win the @Wimbledon Invitational event, but we didn’t get (significantly) hurt and we had a ton of fun! So a win in our books! Another wonderful opportunity to reconnect with friends and play on the same side as @SlavaSays again ❤️🍓🎾 #retiredlife

I had a wonderful experience representing the @WTA at the @SpecialOlympics World Games held in Berlin, Germany. The skill and grace of the athletes are inspirational and remind me how sport is the great unifier. Plus, there was a small WTA player reunion!

It’s our last day in Porto Alegre! @nicolaspereira and I were here as Sports Envoys, a @StateDept @SportsDiplomacy program using sport as a tool to promote cross-cultural understanding, engage underserved communities, & empower the next generation of athletes as leaders.

tennis as a vehicle for social change. Last but not least, we enjoyed Brazilian churrasco, samba, and plenty of caipirinhas! Thank you to the Porto Alegre Consulate - @EmbaixadaEUA for your wonderful hospitality and facilitation -
