" I haven't been playing the best tennis of this tournament, but I found ways to get through to the last two matches. Tried to do that again today, but she played extremely well. "

SOUNDBITE: (English)

I think it's a success in terms of that I'm back and that I'm healthy. That's quite important. Otherwise I wouldn't give myself a chance to play. So on that note, yeah, I have to look at the positives and see where I have come from in four or five months. I haven't played a lot of tennis in those six months. So I certainly would have loved to play a little bit more before playing a Grand Slam, but this is the chance that I was given. I'm smart enough to be able to take it and acknowledge that I'm still pretty lucky to be in the draw and giving myself a chance to try to win it."
