Brought Quotes
I had people coming up all the time and even now they are still and they seem very touched by what happened. I don't know if it's because they feel sorry for me or they really enjoyed the match or whatever it may be. But for some reason, that match sticks out more in fan's minds than other matches that they've ever brought up to me.
-
Easy Quotes
It's tough sometimes to play four weeks in a row and still to come out on top, ... I've played a lot of matches the last few weeks and I felt this whole week was a success. I won in straight sets every match, and it's not always easy to win when you're expected to win. I felt I handled that very well this week.
-
Happy Quotes
I'm really happy that I was able to come here and get through these matches and still feel healthy and ready to go to New York, ... This was a big test for my back. I think it was real important just to play some matches and get the rust out of my game. Obviously to win this tournament is a bonus. Overall, the week was nothing but a positive for me.
-
Ball Quotes
On the second set, I felt like I was playing well and hitting the ball well, ... First set, I just don't think either of us played all that well. ... But as the match went on, I felt like I was getting much better rhythm and on top of the balls and being a little bit more consistent with my shot.
-
Again Quotes
It was a strange match with lots of ups and downs from both of us. I started off really well, but from 3-all in the second set, I missed a few and she stepped it up. I got off to a good start at the beginning of the third, and I think that settled the matter. Her level dropped again and I was able to take advantage.
-
Beginning Quotes
I wouldn't have necessarily predicted that at the beginning of the week, ... I didn't know how my game would be. Obviously I am a consistent performer, but the way everything has kind of panned out it's been a good week for me, just trying to win matches and trying to be out there and win and compete when I don't feel like I am playing my best, and looking forward to another opportunity.
-
Break Quotes
It just came down to the one break. I had my chance to go for the break in the third, and to get back even in the last game, and I just didn't win those couple of points today. So you know, I didn't start the match playing well, but I was able to turn that around and start to play better and played well at the end of the second set. And even the third set I played okay.
-
Biggest Quotes
I can tell in the motion, ... Sometimes you can double fault and miss serve, but hit it really well. I just feel like it's just a rhythm thing. Hopefully, the more I serve and the more I practice it and the more I do it in matches it'll come back. It's one of my biggest weapons. I'm not scared that it's gone away. It just is a matter of me being able to hit it more.
-
Committed Quotes
It's not a mission of mine to end the year No.1. I know if I win everything I have a very good chance, but I just want to focus on the matches I have to win and the tournaments that I'm committed to for the remainder of this year. Of course I'd take another Grand Slam title over the No.1 ranking any day, but I am proud of the fact that I'll probably finish another season at least in the Top Three. That's no mean feat.
-
Both Quotes
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.

Amazed Quotes
I'm happy and amazed that I'm sitting here winning, ... You never know what to expect when you come back. I'm really happy I got the matches in, (but) I still think there's a lot of things I would like to improve on before the US Open, but to sit here with a title is pretty rewarding.
