Francesca Schiavone Played Quotations

It was very tough. I didn't push at the times I needed to push, and this is the result. She played well when she had to.

It was very tough and she played very well in the most important moment. I didn't push maybe sometimes when I had to push...it finished like this...I was very near, very close to winning.

She really played her best tennis, and I have to give her credit for playing a great tournament. I have been working very hard on my fitness and my game, and I hope to get another chance soon. I am very happy with my week and hope to continue my form next week in Zurich.

I'm very disappointed. She played better than me on the important points but I didn't push hard enough.

I am of course disappointed, but maybe I need a little practice in the finals of these big tournaments. This was my first Tier I final, and she was just too good for me today. She really played her best tennis, and I have to give her credit for playing a great tournament. I have been working very hard on my fitness and my game, and I hope to get another chance soon. I am very happy with my week and hope to continue my form next week in Zurich.
