WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID
Coria: 戦n a final, you always have to give your best. I knew I had to take
advantage of the opportunities. I was very calm and focused in what I had to do.
Every single day I work hard to try to improve. I've wanted to be No. 1 since I
was a kid. Winning Roland Garros or the Olympics are part of that same dream.
To be the first Argentinean since (Guillermo) Perez-Roldan to win the
tournament is just great.?
Moya: 装ou never want to lose in a final, but when I came here I hadn't been
playing for a month and I had no rhythm. I kept on getting my level back little
by little, match after match. Last week I never thought I was going to be in
the final again, so I think it is still a positive week for me. My ankle still
bothers me a little, but it isn't an excuse for today's loss. Coria just played
a great match and took advantage of the opportunities he had.?
