bit few looked playing venus watching
Watching her play a little bit the first few rounds, I thought Venus looked like she was playing well.
both difficult emotional extremely goes good hard looking looks match might playing predict venus win
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.

Whenever you're out there playing a final, the best start you can get off to, it only helps you. I was able to get up that first break at 2-1 and then I played really, really well for a stretch of games.

I've dealt with much worse injuries and things in the past so I'm pretty optimistic that it will heal.

It was a tough match. I served well and didn't get a break, that was the important thing.

Didn't know that. Not important, ... We'll settle it once and for all at the end of the year.

It has been very tricky with the wind,

It's not up in my priority list. My whole goal is just to get better. I'll be playing fewer tournaments this year, so it's inevitable.
bend hurts ok pick
It's OK after a lot of treatment, but sometimes hurts when I bend over to pick up something.
