I don’t want to think about this. I have one more match. If I will be in semifinals, it’s okay. If not, it’s same.
I wait the holiday, so doesn’t matter. But of course I want to be in the semifinals if I can. But first I have to think about the match against Radwanska because it’s going to be tough.
Yeah, I knew that I stay too back, too far away to the court, so I tried just to come more close to the baseline to be more aggressive. But she played well, like I said. She didn’t let me make my game, I can say. I did a few mistakes. The challenges were not with me today. I hit two double faults in first set at 5-4, so was very close.
But, you know, I don’t have to find excuses. Just to think about this match, to take the positives, and just to work on them and to be better next time when I play against her.
She was moving pretty well. Like I said, when I opened the court she did some unbelievable shots. She didn’t miss. She was very close to the line.
I think she had a good day today. She played her best. You know, I have nothing to comment about that.
She deserves to win and I give her a lot of credit for this match.
Certainly once I got the new balls I think she became a little bit more aggressive. Her ball got a little bit deeper. I just think I got off my game plan a little bit and the execution wasn’t there.
Yeah, obviously it was great to come back in that at love-15 in the last game to hit a backhand winner down the line. I think I’ll think about that this evening. That gave me that extra energy to get that game.
But ultimately, look, I think I’m quite pleased to be able to beat the No. 2 player in the world. I think it was, again, a very physical match. I found myself on the defense many times and was able to win a lot of the long points.
I think that’s something, when you don’t play for a long time, you hesitate on a little bit. I really felt like I was able to win a lot of them.
I’ve never actually thought about proving anything to anyone except to myself.
I think I always challenge myself internally. I find goals and challenges in order to motivate myself, otherwise you’re kind of on a steady path. That’s not really fun.
But as far as the outside world, I think I’ve done enough in my career to prove whatever I had to prove. At this point, especially not competing for a long time, it’s not about proving, it’s about going out and competing and playing and doing what I missed for those months.
