Lindsay Davenport Venus Quotations

Watching her play a little bit the first few rounds, I thought Venus looked like she was playing well.

Venus looks like she's playing really well, ... I don't even know what to say when they play each other. It must be so hard that it's pretty hard to predict who will win that match. But If Venus comes through that match, I think that she's looking pretty good up there. This could be just an extremely difficult match and (must be) emotional for her, or it might not be. I don't really know what goes into it for both of them.

I was consistent and hitting the ball very hard. I was very excited about that. Today was the best match I've played since Wimbledon (where she lost to Venus Williams in the final), the kind of tennis I want to play.

It was a terrible match. People asked me if I was hurt (the residue of a back injury that bothered her during the Wimbledon final against Venus Williams). I wish I could say that. Unfortunately, I felt fine. At Wimbledon, I played my heart out and played really well and I totally got beat. Against Elena, I felt a lot of it had to do with me.
