It's also not normal that Venus plays on number two, and then (Anna) Chakvetadze and (Nicole) Vaidisova - who are 18 seed and I don't know which seed - are on Court Number One. I think it makes really no sense.

I am having fun ... I enjoy playing. I enjoy playing for a big crowd. You know, when you're in the finals, you don't have anything to lose. You can just win.
I'm actually pleased with my game ... Not today. But if I compare it to one month ago, it's much better. So I look forward to play the U.S. Open, the most important tournament obviously is coming in two days. I hope I will stay fresh for each match.
I just didn't have power, especially in the third set ... If you are not able to run and fight on the court, then you're going to lose the match.
Stockholm was in Scandinavia, it was my first tournament and it was smaller than this ... Here, it's the tournament before the U.S. Open, and it's a really big tournament. You know, I have beaten some really great players on my way to win this tournament.
I would have liked to have played better ... This is my 11th final and I've only won twice. It's starting to really sting, you know, nine times losing. I've got a lot of runner-up trophies in my office in my house.
