"The visit to Mother House is very important and inspirational," said tennis star Martina Hingis after going round the global headquarters of Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity here today. "People can hardly emulate the things she (Mother Teresa) has done." Martina told PTI after her visit. "She (Mother Teresa) has a vision and goal that people should try to achieve. It is so difficult to live a life like her and attain whatever she has got." "If my game and my smile helps people in some way, I shall remain thankful," she said. At the Mother House, Martina offered floral tributes and prayers. She was accompanied by her mother Melanie Molitor and Indian star Mahesh Bhupathi's wife Sweta, besides tennis players Tamarine Tanasugarn (Thailand), Leizel Heuber (South Africa), her husband and Melinda Czink (Hungary). Heuber is Sania Mirza's partner in the doubles. Later, she paid a visit to 'Sishu Bhavan', the home for destitute children, and interacted with the inmates there. Martina donated USD 20,000 to the 'Sishu Bhavan.' The former world number, who is playing at the Sunfeast WTA open, also visited a pictorial exhibition on the Mother's life at the 'Sishu Bhavan'.
