Maria : « Even when we had long points, I felt I knew what I had to do to win. Sometimes I was aggressive, sometimes I was waiting to find the right time to be aggressive. I think I did everything right tonight. McHale had really good results in the American tournaments, but I never saw her play. So it helped me to play her in doubles yesterday – I saw how she serves, her returns, and how she’s playing. I was quite confident. I saw Stosur and Petrova have a very tough match. I think they’re both playing great tennis. The one who is playing better at the end will win. I’m ready to play anyone – if I want to win, I have to beat a great player. »
