Patty
Schnyder lost to Serena Williams 4-6 2-6
Q. Looked
like when she broke you in that seventh game, you started
losing the range a little bit on your shots. Was it her
picking up her play, or did you just fall off a little
bit?
PATTY
SCHNYDER: Yeah, I mean, it was a little frustrating how
she was serving. So, I mean, I need to really keep up,
yeah, and try to go for all the serves. So I was really
frustrated because I felt like if you had some more
rallies from the back, I could find the game and you could
have some good rallies, and I would be able to, yeah,
level the game with her from the baseline. But it was
never possible the way she served. So I was a little
frustrated. Yeah, didn't help me, yeah, get the good
focus on my game. Yeah, it shouldn't happen like this,
but, I mean, she was too good today.
Q. Is that
the best she served against you in all the times you
played her?
PATTY
SCHNYDER: Yeah, I think so.
Q. What did
you take away from this particular match? What do you feel
you need to do to improve, because you're going to be
meeting Serena Williams again.
PATTY
SCHNYDER: When she serves that well, I will never be able
to make a break. If she serves like this, it's hard for
anybody. I'm always telling, if I want to win, it's like
she has to play like less than hundred percent. So that's
the first thing. I mean, it was a pity for me that it was
that cold and windy. I mean, I don't like those
conditions. I love to play in the heat. Yeah, so, I mean,
just everything. If I want to beat her, really everything
has to go my way, the way I feel. It's just very few times
that that can happen. |
