A: I played a few sports when I was kid. I did gymnastics when I was seven years old, and I was pretty good. At the same time, I was also practicing tennis. One time, I went to a gymnastics school competition and I finished in 3rd place. Of course, I was happy placing 3rd, but unfortunately I didn't get any medal.

Q: What's your favorite tournament on tour?

A: My favorite tournament on tour is the Australian open, as well as Indian Wells.

Q: What is your favorite part about the World TeamTennis format?
