A Quote by Billie Jean King

Champions adjust and pressure is a privilege. — © Billie Jean King
Champions adjust and pressure is a privilege.
I had a lot of pressure in my career: when you play at World Cup or Champions League final, there is pressure on your shoulders.
The reality of this sport is champions make a heck of a lot more than non-champions, so the pressure to keep the title in order to keep earning that money is immense.
But I think the Champions League Final puts a massive pressure on every player and the manager, but we're enjoying the pressure and hopefully we can go there and win it.
When you are nominated for the best player in Europe, the Ballon d'Or, playing in the Champions League, there is so much pressure. You don't know what will happen. This pressure is inside you - you always have it.
Just always believe in yourself. "Champions adjust." It's a line I learned from Billie Jean King, and sometimes your dream adjusts. Be willing to adjust with it and see where your opportunities ... sometimes a door closes but a window opens, so just follow your dreams and continue. You never know where it's going to take you.
Pressure on nerves causes irriatation and tension with deranged functions as a result. Why not release the pressure? Why not adjust the cause instead of treating the effects? Why not?
I want to be one of the greatest champions of all time. And it's a good pressure - I need this pressure. Because if pressure is making me work, if it's making me work harder - it was hard work to get to the championship, to win the championship.
If your white privilege and class privilege protects you, then you have an obligation to use that privilege to take stands that work to end the injustice that grants that privilege in the first place.
When you are in the second position and you want to be champions, you are always under pressure.
Being able to adjust - to any fighter, no matter what pressure he can give me - I'm going to show I can do all that.
Having pressure is a privilege.
Pressure is a privilege ... it's what you do with it that matters.
Champions are pioneers, and pioneers get shot at. The companies that get the most from champions, therefore, are those that have rich support network so their pioneers will flourish. This point is so important it's hard to overstress. No support systems, no champions. No champions, no innovations.
Pressure is a privilege - it only comes to those who earn it.
One of the best sayings in tennis and sport is that pressure is a privilege.
Both with Bayern and with the national team, I have a lot of teammates who have achieved a lot more than me - most of them are world champions, European champions or Champions League winners.
