Quotes

Garbine Muguruza

Former Spanish tennis star and two-time Grand Slam champion

“We always joke about it, it’s like a Hollywood movie, it’s a crazy story. We met in the street in New York, it was love at first sight. It was one of those boring days, I didn’t know what to do, so I go for a walk on Central Park as well, and I just bumped into him. I was just like: ‘Wait a minute, you’re very handsome, who are you?’ And he’s a tennis fan, so he recognized me and said: ‘Hey, good luck.’ And that’s it, that was enough.”
