I'm Justine Henin...
04/09/2005:
Justine won her 3rd round encounter with unseeded Yoon Jeong Cho of Korea 6-0
7-6(7-4), and into the second week, which many consider to be when the real
grand slam tournament begins. Justine talks about the match, and where she
feels her place is among the contenders.
It was almost day and night between the first and second sets?
"I think I played first set, and the beginning of the second with a very high
intensity. I was playing very well, then lost a little bit of my
aggressivity. I didn't play bad very when she broke to come to 3-1 in the
second, but after that the match changed a little bit. I was a little bit too
far from the baseline. I wasn't that aggressive. It was very difficult to
keep the intensity as high as it was, but I could win this match probably
earlier. Finally, when I had to be aggressive at the end of the set, I did,
so I got the win in two sets."
Your first serve percentage was good, but about those double-faults?
"Yeah, it's been a little bit of trouble for me in my last two matches. I
don't have especially one reason. I'm sure I'll get better. I'm happy with my
percentage of first serve. I think I have to keep working on it, and when I
will. I need some confidence. When I will get this confidence, I'm sure my
serve is going to get better."
Rusty tennis?
"I think so. I am a player who needs a lot of matches, especially before a
Grand Slam. Right now I won a couple of matches, and that gives confidence.
And when you injured, you have to rest. So that's bad enough. Before a Grand
Slam, for sure, you probably need more than one tournament. I played five
matches in Toronto, and that's been pretty good."
You and Lindsay are the only top players that are married. Does it help your
tennis on tour?
"That gives confidence; that gives security that I built my own family. So
that's very important that I have the support of my husband, who is traveling
not all the time, but in a lot of tournaments. So that is very important,
especially for a woman; more sensitive than men."
The buzz talk about former US Open champions is on Lindsay and the
Williamses. You're low profile this year.
"I think, yeah. It's just on the court that we can see the real fights. It's
not what everybody else can say. I'm going to try to prove on the court that
I'm part of the players who can go to the end of the tournament. That's the
situation, and I don't care about that."
You looked tense closing out the 2nd round match. Was it the case today?
"It did, but I'm Justine Henin, it's going to be like that, I think, for my
whole career. It's the way I am, and the way I act. I think it's going to be
very hard for me to change that in the future. My sensibility helps me to do
a lot of great things to achieve great goals, but sometimes it gives me a
little bit of trouble. It's just the way you are. You try to get better, try
to handle better with situations. It's very hard to change your character and
your personality, and I don't want to because that's what help me so much to
did what I do; to do what I did.
You're finally playing a seeded opponent in the next round. Will there be
anymore tense situations like today?
"I think for me it's much harder to play my first rounds where I have a lot
of pressure, where I have to win, because it's these kind of matches that on
the paper you have to win. I'm more comfortable when I know I'm going to play
a seeded player. And it's going to be a good test for me anyway. Both of them
are playing very well. It's going to be a tough match in the fourth round,
but it's going to be a good test for me and very interesting."
