It seems like a lucky place for me. After last year I'm still dreaming about Saturday night every single day, so who knows? |
It was a close match and very emotional for both of us. I have had so many matches winning 7-6 in the third, so I know how it feels to be that close and when one point can decide the whole match that we play for almost three hours. It's a great challenge for me to play against someone who is younger, who has nothing to lose, who is from Russia. |
It was a tough first-round match. She has a pretty solid game, the whole package. She's very aggressive from the baseline. She's playing at a high level. |
It was a very close match, so even though she had a match point, I never gave up. I was just going for the winner. |
It was a very tough match but I am just thinking, 'Why is my favorite score 7-6 in the third? |
It was an added motivation. I was happy when I found out I would be playing her. |
It was another Williams today. She was playing different tennis today. |
It was really tough. I'm exhausted but ever so happy. |
It was very difficult to play today. I think Maria was able to handle the situation and play with the wind better. |
It was very difficult to play with this kind of serve, ... I have no excuse for serving like that. |
It's all about instincts, |
It's an old story now and we should stop talking about it. She beat me that day because she was the best player, full stop. |
It's been a long time I could finish the match like that in less than an hour. I was feeling very confident with every shot that I was making. |
It's hard to say (if she would be able to be among the top-10 by the end of the year). She has everything to do it. But I don't know how soon can she be on the top. |
It's my third Fed Cup final but the first time that I have won so I am really happy, |
