Happy #GivingTuesday ❤️
There are so many worthy causes out there - if interested, check out @serveuphopeorg @AAPITennis @SpecialOlympics @WimBelemDon @USTAEastern @LSAAutismTennis @WTA Foundation - all tennis focused and have made an impact on my life!
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
Had a fun first round with @SlavaSays and it brings back great memories walking the hallowed grounds of @Wimbledon 🍓🎾
Woohoo!! @SlavaSays and I are confirmed to be back playing together at the @Wimbledon Invitational event! Worn bones, worn body, but happy memories and new expectations! #justdontgethurt

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!
What an amazing event put on by @USTAEastern and supported by @AAPITennis - was honored to be a part of it!

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 -
I was lucky enough to participate in the @specialolympics National Tennis Championships at the Pro Clinic, Opening Ceremony, Pro Exhibition, and my favorite — as a Unified partner! (1/2)
