I am Garbine Muguruza and this is everything I eat in a day.

So the first thing I do when I wake up is I go straight to my coffee machine to prepare my long black coffee.

I'm a big coffee drinker, so I need that before anything else.

So after I had my morning coffee and I am awake, I would start preparing my regular breakfast.

As a tennis player, obviously I need a lot of energy.

So my typical breakfast would be a big bowl of oatmeal, and I would add some protein powder, blue berries, strawberries, some honey, and I would mix it all up with some almond milk.

Because that gives me a lot of energy the entire morning, which is you know my most strong moment of the day, and I would finish it up with  some multigrain toast with cream cheese that I love. That would be my regular breakfast.

But there is a few days of the year where I can you know allow myself  to eat everything that I don't eat during the year, and then I would have some pancakes or French bakery that I love. But that's few days of the year only.

During my morning which is pretty long, workouts and exercise usually takes like 4 or 5 hours in a row.

I really concentrate on having high energy and to not feel weak, so I almost eat little bites every hour, like a banana and dates. I would eat sports gels.

I feel like dates are very interesting because it gives me a lot of energy and it's like a healthy sugar.

My typical lunch would be something easy to digest, something that keeps me going — rice, white rice with some vege.

I like also to add some chicken and some white fish, like a big plate of colorful and different things.

Something that makes you feel full and recharged, but at the same time that allows me to keep going. Usually in the afternoons, I also have to train and exercise, so I wanna eat and feel like ok, I feel good, but in a few hours I can go and run again.

I try not eat with a lot of sauces. I feel to go to my bedroom and have a siesta. That's not what I want.

In the afternoon, after the whole training and workout — so exhausted, that I always have a protein shake to recover.

Vanilla is my favorite flavor, and I mix it up with some cherry juice, which is a very natural antioxidant.

I drink it very fast. It feels very good to me and to my stomach.

And here comes the good part—the treat of the day.  I always eat a piece of chocolate in the afternoon, milk chocolate with some, I don't know, almond.

It always gives me like, okay, I need this, this is my treat, and then I have a smile.

From Spain, my favorite food would be jamón ibérico, and also tortilla de patatas, which is a Spanish omelette that have potatoes, onions and eggs. I love that. It's so good.

And from Venezuela, I love arepas. It's a classic dish. Everybody loves it. It's like a corn tortilla, and You can fill it up with anything you want.

My favorite food city would Rome. I just love Italian food. I love pasta. I love pizza, tiramisu, gelato.

I feel like I need have everything under control and organized. I feel like I start eating here and there, then it's like nonstop.

If I have it yesterday, I can have it today and tomorrow. You know, at the end of the day, I am an athlete.

So nutrition is maybe one of the most important parts.

So because I took my protein shake, my protien recovery, I don't feel that feeling of "I am gonna eat the world!"

And so my typical dinner would be... I love cream, like cream soups and pumpkin soup.

I would add potatoes and carrots and leeks and onions.

I don't know. It's like a big soup. You feel like good when you have it. Doesn't disappear. You feel it.

And then I can add some protein if I feel still hungry or if I have a very strong day.

And I also always eat like a yogurt at night when I am watching TV  or watching a movie. I just sit there in my couch in my living room and I'm just like eating a yogurt.

Before a very important match, I tend to eat less than more, just because you are so nervous and you are so tense that your stomach is just like — it's closed.

In general, I feel like I eat everything.

I also tend to avoid like sauces, creamy sauces.

If you have to find the food in the sauce, then it's like "I gonna pay the price!"

I feel like my digestion is gonna take forever.

After winning a big trophy, I always want to eat a nice piece of steak with a nice bottle of red wine—Spanish, of course.

And my mom would for sure prepare some desserts—she is a great cook.

My favorite meal to go would be anything you throw in the BBQ.

In the grill, everything tastes good, no matter you can throw — fish, veges, chicken, meat, burgers — you are safe.

Like you can't go wrong, and it's easy on the top of that, so I am a BBQ master.
