Re: [轉錄]M.Sharapova v.s N.Petrova
M. SHARAPOVA/N. Petrova
7-6, 6-4
Q. Was it frustrating for you today?
NADIA PETROVA: Yes, it was.
Q. Why was that?
NADIA PETROVA: I just feel like I simply gave it away. I had all the chances
in the first set, 5?4 serving for the set, 6?5 serving for the set, 6?4 in
the tiebreaker. You know, it's like it couldn't be a better present that I
would just did to Maria.
I must say she fought hard for it. She stayed in the game. I mean, there's
nothing I can do about it now. I can just go through my mistakes and get my
head cleared from all this and just move forward.
Q. Is it a mental thing?
NADIA PETROVA: It could be. It could be. There's also good point from the
match, I'm quite happy about it, that even that I lost, I stayed much better
in the rallies. I had most of the time controls in the rallies. I'm just
getting very close next time not to let those opportunities slip away.
Q. Is there a way to work on that?
NADIA PETROVA: It can be a way of work, as well. I think for me is just
matter of facing those kind of players more and more.
Q. When you play her, do those noises she makes come as a distraction?
NADIA PETROVA: I can't say it's a distractions because, first of all, when
she start grunting, it means she's getting tight, she holds the ball. Second
of all, the balls are not coming as fast. So that's her way, you know, get
out of tension.
Q. Have you ever thought about complaining to the umpire?
NADIA PETROVA: It doesn't bother me. It doesn't bother me at all. If it
would, I would definitely go and tell him.
Q. The charge has been made that it's unfair because it prevents the opponent
from hearing the ball being struck. Is that a problem for you?
NADIA PETROVA: Not at all. I don't see any problem. Monica did the same. I
think no matter how hard you grunt, I think you can still hear the ball
coming from the racquet, especially in the arena. The sound is much higher.
Q. There have been some tensions before between you and Yuri. Did you feel
that he was coaching or interfering in the match today?
NADIA PETROVA: Well, I mean, that's Yuri (smiling). I just tried to ignore
him completely. Even didn't look at his side once.
Q. Maria said the wind was a factor out there today in the match. Did you
feel that, too?
NADIA PETROVA: The wind definitely been very, yeah, difficult. Especially, I
mean, I had so many double?faults, I think I even went for my record today
with the double?faults. Quite frustrating with that.
Same conditions for both of us. Who could better cope with it became a
winner.
Q. Was the blister that you were getting attended to, was that a factor for
you for your grip or just a pain thing?
NADIA PETROVA: It's a pain thing. If the match would go to three sets, I have
no idea how I would just hold the racquet.
Q. You seemed a little frustrated out there at times. Was that because of the
pain or errors or what?
NADIA PETROVA: It was both. In the beginning it was errors. Then by the end
of the match, it was just my blisters. I had to open it up twice, get the
fluid out. Then by the end of the match, it just start to bleed. I couldn't
really hold the racquet any more.
Q. Your comments about your coach caused a little bit of a stir. Do you have
someone else in mind?
NADIA PETROVA: I do have couple of people. As soon as I'll be back in home,
I'll probably just repack my bags and go further. I have someone in Germany
that I like to try out. I even didn't have met him, but I heard good things
about him. So I'm just going to try out.
I'm in a search for someone.
Q. What do you think you need to do to raise your game to get even higher in
the rankings?
NADIA PETROVA: Well, I would say, yeah, I still have to work little bit more
on my consistency. Then, of course, the mental toughness, as well.
With such a powerful groundstroke as I have, I should be using the net much
more often than I usually do.
