00:00I kind of went into the match obviously not knowing too much about how it was going to
00:07look like in person, having not really hit with her in the past or first meeting as well.
00:14So I think she brought a great level and that's what you would expect considering all her
00:21amazing achievements.
00:22And I kind of tried to just bring that middle ground and I think I have to be able to adapt
00:31to the game and what's necessary for different play styles.
00:37And I wasn't able to do that today, but so much credit to her for the level that she
00:43was able to produce as well.
00:44Every match is really cool, I think, at this level and it's really just a dream to even
00:54be here.
00:55So it's, yeah, it's the quarterfinals, but, you know, ultimately I hope to be in many quarterfinals,
01:02right?
01:02So I don't think that this win or loss today is going to make or break my career, really.
01:08So, yeah, it was a tough one and I think Arena played very well.
01:13I could have done some things differently, but that's tennis and I think it's amazing
01:20what she's done for herself in her career.
01:24It's very inspiring and I think the way she's been able to use all the negative things, I
01:33know her story quite well, all the negative things that have happened to her on court and
01:38in her personal life as well and turn them into motivation and fuel to be better is amazing.
01:43So I hope to get more chances to play against her and she was very nice at the end of the
01:48match as well.
01:49So, yeah, it's good and hopefully I can get some more chances to get her back.
