SAN FRANCISCO - Former world tennis champion and first Chinese tennis champion Michael Chang and his newly wed Amber Liu shared their joyful life of marriage at the press conference hosted by Prince of Peace Corporation on Nov. 21.
The following is the account of the interview with Chang at the press conference:
Q: I heard a lot about your wife from the media here, but can you share a bit about your marriage life and how you and your wife met?
Chang: We met through tennis. We met the first time at US Open in 2003. She was playing there in the main draw at the women’s event. I met her very briefly. I went up to the player lounge. She was talking with my brother Carl. It was the first time we have met. I’ve only talked to her for a few minutes. I did not see her again until last year. She is actually very good friends with my cousin James, who also went to Stanford and played on the tennis team. We kind of indirectly met through him. I didn’t know where she lived down in the Orange County area, which is where I’m from. We got a chance to practice a little bit and through that period of time we got to know each other and she fell in love with me. Things just blossomed. The Lord’s been blessing everything and our wedding was a lot of fun. Our honeymoon was great.
