I don't believe that when you get on the court you should get surprises. Everyone is beatable; I knew I could do it today. |
I don't know. It will be one of the biggest matches of my career. You know, I think I played Wimbledon Centre Court, |
I don't think I'll be intimidated but, you know, it's obviously a very big match for me, |
I enjoy hitting the ball as hard as I can. |
I got my elbow injured while playing in the singles during the Bangalore Open. I have been carrying a few injuries from the past few weeks and that may lead me to pull out of the Doha Open. |
I guess I'm playing the best tennis I've ever played (but) it's always one match at a time. You can't just jump ahead. |
I guess now, if there are people starting tennis now, it's easier because the facilities are improving. But at that time, I mean, I played in clay courts where it was almost, you know, there were almost craters on the court. I twisted my ankle about a dozen times a day. |
I guess people just have to accept it. That's how I play. I'm going to maybe have 50 unforced errors one day, but I'm going to also have 50 winners that day. |
I had fun out there. Had a great Open. First US Open, I don't think I can ask for more. Very happy. |
I had some injuries but now it doesn't seem to hurt me that much. I have practiced today and did some yesterday and didn't have any pain. |
I have always said that the second year was going to be tougher than the first. You cannot jump from top-40 to top-20 in two months. |
I have nothing to lose if I'm going to play her. There's obviously no pressure on me. I don't think a lot of people expect me to win. |
I hope this (award) will inspire me to aim for higher achievements and glory in the game. |
I just came here thinking I wanted to win one round and won three. I'm very happy about it. |
