00:00I'm so grateful. I mean, I feel like I ran out of gas today, unfortunately.

00:05I tried to find the energy, and I didn't find it.

00:09But, you know, four matches in the first week is a lot.

00:12But I'm really grateful, I think, without that doubles match.

00:16I don't know if I could have played as well in the singles.

00:18So I think everything served its purpose this week.

00:22I'm sorry to have fell short.

00:24But I know I can play better, and I know I will play better.

00:30So congratulations to Magda today.

00:32I hope we get another chance to play this summer so I can play a little better next time.
