Editors Note: We applaud her efforts. Flip is a player that plays her heart out on every point. God blessed her with a great talent. Phoebe calls her the “Female Federer.”

Flip is truly a great example of a player that loves the camaraderie on the WTA tour.

Travel is tough for her. Her size is perfect. It’s a condition she has, but she always guts it out. The sushi “Nobu” dinners seem to encourage her. She is very loyal to her sponsors. Koddaert, Babolat, Oakley and Kim Clijsters is like a big sister. Flip love cars and drives like a pro. She played Team Tennis in Indian league one year and the American WTT. She is greatly loved by all the fans and teammates.
