I am happy to have played a match and break the rhythm of daily training.

You know, it doesn't happen that often that you have the crowd support behind you straightaway from the beginning of the match.

I've worked really hard, but it's definitely not been easy.

It was tough, I gave everything I had on those match points but she just came up with better shots. I still find it very hard to believe. Its amazing.

You can wake me up now - these last four weeks in America have been incredible.

Obviously over the years, it's been America, it's been Europe. It's all been very kind of divided between those two continents. It's nice to kind of see that Asia is starting - and especially China - starting to get recognized in this sport, too.

People get so stressed and nervous and mad.
