Petra Kvitova: I don't trust in people now, especially men
In an interview with The Guardian, Petra Kvitova commented on the attack on her while she was at home in the Czech Republic, in December 2016. "It’s changed me, for sure. In a good way and a bad way. Sometimes when you’re on tour for so many years, you feel flat or unmotivated, without drive," said Kvitova. On how her character has changed, she added: “I was very stressed, but now I’m more relaxed. I appreciate small things more, like beautiful weather, being with my family and my friends. If there’s a big problem, I do care, but if it’s a small, stupid thing, I’m like, yeah, whatever.
"People sometimes say, ‘Yeah, she won a grand slam: she just woke up in a good mood.’ But to win two of them, that changes it. Also it was a tough draw – I had to beat three Czech girls to win.”
Then she concluded: "I don’t trust in people now. Especially men. That is why I’m single, probably. I am trusting of people I have known for a long time, but I’m not very trusting of people who I have just known a short while. I can’t go in a taxi alone with men. When I’m in the city or in the street, I’m almost running. Sometimes, I have this huge fear that somebody is at my back. It’s hard.”
