An interview with: TATIANA GOLOVIN
THE MODERATOR: Questions for Tatiana.
Q. How frustrating was that for you out there based on how you've played
thus far?
TATIANA GOLOVIN: It's very annoying to lose a match like this because, you
know, you feel like you're up. I have points 5-3 to go up in the second,
then I could be up 3-Love in the third, and you never know how the match
is going to turn around if I win those points.
It's definitely very frustrating. She's a very tough player to play. She
runs down everything. She's aggressive on every ball basically. So she's
a great player. And to me, I feel like I need to play more of these kind
of matches to really get better.
Q. You played in extreme conditions here. Today was almost ideal.
TATIANA GOLOVIN: Yeah, it wasn't very hot at all. So we can't really
complain on the weather. It was just a bit windy sometimes during the
match. But, I mean, that goes for both players. I think the conditions
were actually pretty nice.
Q. What is it specifically that she frustrated you with, especially in the
second and third?
TATIANA GOLOVIN: You know, I think I started off really well the first set.
I played very well. You know, just it's tough to always keep the same level
up. You know, normally if I would play like this against another like Top
20, 30 player, I would win the match. But these are Top 10 players, and the
difference is there. You have to keep that level all the time. I think I
haven't played that many matches against top players.
You know, I just have to get used to it and really I guess try to keep the
same level.
Q. Does it come out as a positive experience?
TATIANA GOLOVIN: Totally. It's completely positive, you know, because I feel
like, you know, I'm just a couple games away. I think she was really happy
when she won that third set because, you know, she could feel that I was
there and I have every chance. So to me it's definitely positive.
But I just finished like 15 minutes ago, so obviously I'm upset about it.
