"Some people jump out of planes, some go skiing or drive a car real fast, others change their partners and take drugs to live in extremes. I take the rollercoaster of feelings every time I go out on the court and I am extremely fortunate to be able to make a living out this way"
Andrea Petkovic
I think this is the first time I have ever seen a tennis player describing her chosen field of endeavour in this way. I have always felt that tennis players are risk takers. How else do you lay it all on the line the way they do. Stepping up to serve down break point, receiving down match point. You have to be a risk taker to go out there every day and do this job. Must be a wonderful feeling when it all comes together.
