Many athletes in the world of professional tennis are competitive, but Danielle Collins goes above and beyond. The American tennis player boldly referred to herself as the “most competitive person ever” in a recent interview, highlighting the fact that her desire to succeed goes well beyond the game. Her claim is acknowledged by her family as well! Collins is well known for her intense focus and ferocious resolve during matches. And her statement highlights the passion with which she addresses all facets of her life.

Collins’ WTA ranking of No. 7 on the professional circuit is surely a result of her competitiveness. Her recent revelation of being extremely competitive shows her determination to push herself to reach new heights in her career.

Danielle Collins is not ready to lose a game!

After winning the NCAA twice while attending the University of Virginia, Collins’ career took a dramatic turn in 2022 when she advanced to her only Grand Slam final at the Australian Open. After the match, she debuted in the Top-10 and rose to the top of the American rankings. When asked about her drive behind her ferocious play on-court, she said during an interview, “I am the most competitive person like ever. I am not losing, baby. Let’s go like flat out. I am the most competitive person.”

But even outside of sports, Danielle Collins’s unwavering motivation is a tribute to her strength of character and resolve. She embraces every opportunity with the same degree of intensity, whether it’s on or off the court, never settling for anything less than her best. Her family recognizes this as well. “My family and friends, and boyfriend, they are like you are the most competitive person. I win that award. Even if it’s a game of cards bowling, I compete at everything there is in life, and my brain doesn’t turn off,” she further added.
