"I said to her at the end it was an honor to play her. I've followed her career and she's not just a great tennis player, she's a great person. To come back and show the people anything is possible is really inspiring. And today we were playing on the senior tour--we were 70 together!"
Francesca Schiavone, who defeated Kimiko Date Krumm in Tokyo today
If you love something you keep going or come back. Not for the glory or the records but just for the sheer joy of pitting yourself against another one like you, hopefully winning and smiling with the applause.
