Obviously it was a huge change in momentum
I'm very pleased that I was able to get through and get us up to a one-nil head start
I actually thought I played well ... I felt pretty good out there.
When someone's playing that aggressively and not giving you anything at all, she's pretty hard to beat
That's probably not going to mean too much going into Monday's match ... But I'm looking forward to it. I've lived up to my expectation. I've got to where I should have got to. Playing the number one player in the world, defending champion, I can go out there and really enjoy it.
I'm going to have to stand my ground, stand up to her and give her my best shot
I'm going to have to serve well and take every opportunity ... As soon as I get that shorter ball, that half-sniff to do something, then I've got to do it. I can't let those kind of go by and wait for a second chance. It's going to be obviously quick points and hard hitting, so I'm going to have to stan...
Maybe just pressing a little bit too much when the court wasn't open for it
Maybe I hit a couple, but I hit with a bit of spin. Maybe she wasn't expecting so many balls to drop in because of the spin.
I guess she thought I hit too many frames or shanks during that match
It’s recently been a bigger goal of mine to try and get a better percentage on my first serve, and today, I did that well and was still going for it and hit a few aces as well
We’ve had a couple of close matches the last two times we’ve played and, yeah, I got the last one, so I’m going to ride with that and go into the match feeling pretty confident
Knowing I’m going to be up against a great champion may take a little bit of the pressure off ... I guess I really don’t have that much to lose. I know I’ve got the game that can beat her because I’ve done it before. So I can go into the match knowing that and really believing in myself.
I'm looking forward to it
My coach constantly tells me I have to keep my foot down when I'm winning, so I tried to do that today and pulled it off
Today, I really wanted to kind of improve that and not let her get back into the match.
The last couple matches I got the lead and then kind of let them back in a little bit, and (have) then been able to get it back again
I can use all of you guys in the crowd to my advantage
I was pretty pleased the way I was hitting the ball today. I'm feeling pretty good as she plays a little different to most players by hitting a lot of slice
I'm really pleased with today, I thought I played pretty well
It's always a relief to get through a first round. Overall, I was really pleased with the way I played
I'm feeling good ... It's a new week, it's a new tournament, it's the Australian Open. I won't be dwelling on any recent losses.
Because you've got nothing to lose and you're not expected to win and all that kind of thing
