I think it was like sometimes in life things happen and you try to change them and if you learn from mistakes, it's always a good thing.
I saw her when she was 12 and she was very good even then. You could hear her from like 10 courts further down.
It feels good to be in the finals once again. I never thought I would make it this far.
I still need to do this and that but I've played a couple of tournaments now and I feel I can get better ... I love coming back here, this stadium has been so good to me.

I feel definitely very good being in the finals again. I hadn't thought to make it this far....
My life has been very good the last couple of years. I'm very comfortable, and this is really hard work,
I just really like playing here. I've always had good results here and those memories kick in as well.
I'm just waiting for a wild card to play in the Australian Open . To face Anna will be a good test for me.
I'm not looking for any excuses. She was just too good today. I've had a very good start to my comeback and I will go home with my head up.

I just came out here the other day. I could already feel the atmosphere coming from the previous years. You don't know how good it feels. This surface, this stadium has been so good for me.
It was definitely a good performance today. I played smart and concentrated throughout the whole match. It was key in the first games to hold serve.
