It's hard to analyze straight after a defeat. She carried the team this weekend. She was so solid. Sometimes things just don't work out. |
It's hard to analyze straight after a defeat. We played our best but it wasn't good enough. I hope I don't take too long to recover from this. |
It's just feeling good. Pretty solid today, consistent match. Really a good way to get into this tournament. |
It's nearly impossible now to stay injury free for a whole season, so recuperation between games and the way you live has become even more important. |
It's not by chance that we have been at this level for three, four years. We work hard, we are a unified team, we have a great state of mind. |
It's not over yet. Mary can make it. I'll go and take some rest to be ready for the doubles. |
It's such a long time. I'm very happy to do it again. Hopefully it'll go my way this time. It's been a long time and I have been waiting for this, I'm still very happy. |
It's the biggest win, |
It's the first match. Sometimes it goes very well, sometimes you struggle a little bit. |
It's tight, just like we knew it would be, |
It's two months now since we finished The Championships. I guess it's tough to keep the momentum going when you have such a long period between these two big events without having competition. |
It's very satisfying to win against her after losing the last few times, ... I knew I would have opportunities on her serve and I got a lot of double faults in the second set. I know she served well against Kim but it’s still inconsistent and I play a much more varied game than Kim. I knew that I could make it difficult for her. The key was being aggressive at the right moments and not giving her a chance to dictate which I’ve done in our last few matches. |
It's very strange. We had such a great battle till she twisted the ankle. It's a little bit of an unfinished match. I hope she gets better and it's not too bad but that's the way it is. |
Kim played very well at the start and it took me a while to get into the game, to get back even. We both gave it our maximum. |
Knowing her now for two or three years, yeah, that's for sure the best tennis she's ever played, ... She has confidence now, which is huge, a big importance to her game. |
