The 29-year-old became one of the most high-profile players who
is currently playing both tennis and pickleball at the same time.

she is still very much invested in getting success in tennis and is hopeful of
attracting more fans towards the sport.
"Wow, I would love to have accomplished really cool
things in pickleball,” she said. “I would have loved to help grow the sport. I
think if I can bring over some of my fanbase, tennis fans to pickle and even
vice versa, pickle to tennis.
"And I want to continue to play tennis events, play a
bunch of pickleball events. You know it's hectic and busy, but it's super
exciting, and I think this is the time for me to do these things right now.
"I do want to get married and have a bunch of kids as
well, um, so that's on my list later on. I'm in a family of four, so you know
our parents will be busy grandparents, um, but yeah, you know, just do these
things in life that fulfill me, and I think that's the whole point of life,
right."
