I'm hitting the ball well, I'm hitting the ball clean. That's the most frustrating part. As long as (the hip) doesn't get worse, I'll keep fighting and see how I go. |
I'm just glad I'm healthy and moving well, ... Looking back, the injury was the best thing that could have happened to me. I had time to learn about myself. Now I have friends and a life off the road. This victory means more to me than the other wins here because of the injuries I've had in the past. |
I'm just happy to be on the court and happy to be playing in Toronto again. |
I'm just really looking forward to going home to celebrate with my friends and family in Belgium, |
I'm not going to quit for nothing. |
I'm not really playing for the money, ... I just really want to go out there and have fun. Since my injury, playing tennis means so much more because I really missed it when I couldn't do it last year. I'm just happy to be back and playing as well as I am. |

I'm not the kind of player who is going to quit for nothing. |
I'm really proud how I came back to win tonight. I kept fighting, kept staying in the points, and I got her tired, as well. It means a lot. As the years go on, every big win seems to mean a lot more. |
I'm sick of all these injuries, tired of talking about them as well. My ankle will be taped very well. My mobility won't be a normal 100 percent, but I can see and hit the ball perfectly. I won't be using my spread that much. At this stage, it is important to find the right balance between resting and training. In my head I feel fine and that is what counts the most. I take it the fans will guide me through more difficult moments. |
I'm still not moving like I normally can, but a lot better. I just have to do a lot of treatment and everything and that's what I'm doing. I'm not going to hit tomorrow and just keep my routine going so that I'm fresh when I have to be out there. That's why I was wearing my tape today because I felt in my previous match, with the serve, I was just compensating my back a little bit. It started to hurt my left leg, my left hamstring, that's why it's taped today. |
I'm sure all the players that are injured are going to be there. |
I'm sure I was in good hands up there. Luckily I made it back. |
I'm very pleased with winning my first match here today. It's always tough to adjust to the conditions after playing outdoors the whole summer, but I got used to the court pretty quickly today. |
I've been happy with how I've played all summer. It took a while to get my rhythm since I hadn't been on Armstrong Stadium court in quite some time. |
