happy overall played tough
On my side, it was a little up and down, ... When someone doesn't let you get too much rhythm, it's tough to really get into a match. I think I played a little up and down, but overall I'm pretty happy to be going to the semifinals again.

I played at a good level, while preventing her from developing her game.

She is playing really well at the moment. She played well at the Australian Open as well. It won't be an easy match for sure. I am looking forward to the match.

I've played a lot in the last couple of weeks and I sometimes lack a bit of sharpness. Between matches I do nothing but rest.

I felt pretty good on the court out there today, ... I really felt my game, right from the beginning, was consistent and I didn't let her really get into her rhythm and finish the points pretty quickly, as she loves to do.

It's two months now since we finished The Championships. I guess it's tough to keep the momentum going when you have such a long period between these two big events without having competition.

That's what I wanted today, from the first point really making her play as much as I could, I did that very well at the beginning and felt my game was very effective.

It is important to recover well because I feel very tired at the moment with the accumulation of matches and it is having an impact on my game.
tougher
The thing is the game is getting tougher and tougher and we have to ask a lot of our bodies.
ball maybe powerful putting score taking tall
Obviously, just putting the ball in and taking the opportunities when I would have them was probably going to be the key. I didn't think, though, that it was going to be this kind of score or this kind of a match. Yeah, I mean, she made way too many errors...She's tall and she's already very powerful for 16. Maybe sometimes not so coordinated, but this is probably going to come.
deal feeling strange understand
I feel like I am being penalized because she was injured. It is a strange feeling and one I don't really understand but something I have to deal with. This is just the way it is. But I would like the WTA to show some consistency.
