If you win the US Open will you celebrate with a forward roll like you did at Wimbledon? If you do please watch your head! Clare

Hahahahaha. I don't know. I will have to think of something. But the truth is that I am only thinking about my next match.

We all know that you are very competitive on court and fight for every point, but are you like this in every day life, for example, do you always have to win a debate or argument? Sandra, Manchester

Yes, absolutely. Maybe not on arguments since I like to listen. But on games or doing things yes.

What areas of your game do you still need to improve upon? Is there any part of tennis that is difficult for you? Stormy, Minnesota

I have to improve my serve that is actually better this week and I also have to improve my backhand. Play more like in Wimbledon. Tennis is difficult also because the opponent.

During tournaments you've practised with players that are potential opponents on your side of the draw. Is that not weird for you? Atchariya

I don't have a problem with that. I just want to practice. No problem.

I was wondering what off court event have you done since you have been in NYC, any broadway shows this year? Sofie Tolia

Not yet. Not this year. Have to see if I have the chance but I think it will be difficult.

Which quality do you admire most in a person? Katharine

Honest, humble.

For the US Open, do your family and friends in Mallorca stay up all night to watch you play? When you play the night match in America, I watch but have trouble getting up for work the next morning! Daisy

I think so. My family and friends for sure. Tough if I play night matches. Thanks for watching and hope you have quick recoveries.

Which movie era is your favorite? 70's, 80's, 90's or other? Cedrine

I like every era. There are great movies always.

Roger Federer is coming to the Swedish Open this year, I was wondering will we ever see you here in Sweden again? Jasmin

I enjoyed playing in Sweden. Both BASTAD and Stockholm are great events and had a good time there. Hopefully one day.

You said you were going to the mall. Did you buy new toys like an iPad or new computer and how do you like it? Marissa

I did buy a new laptop and in Toronto the tournament gave all quarter-finalists an iPad and we are enjoying it.
