She'll get to spend a lot more time in Philadelphia as the director of player personnel and community engagement for the Freedoms.
"Getting more families in particular involved in tennis in the Philadelphia area would be a big goal for me," she said.

"Get behind the team, enjoy the fast, furious format of World Team Tennis, and enjoy it with all of us," she said.
