Montreal, Quebec, Canada
D. KASATKINA/R. Vinci
7-5, 6-3
An interview with:
ROBERTA VINCI
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. What is your take on the match you played this afternoon? Was there a turning point in the match, something that happened?
ROBERTA VINCI: Yes. Was, of course, a tough match. She's a young player. She's an intelligent player. Today was a different match than yesterday against Giorgi. Was completely different.
But I think she play better than me today, more consistent. Probably my serve was not good today. I play so many second serve.
She play better than me today, so that's it.
Q. You faced her before today?
ROBERTA VINCI: Yeah, I played against her in Doha this year. I won 7-6 in the third. I saved two or three matchpoints. Was a tough match, too. I knew it would be a tough match. She's young. She's always improving her game. Yeah, she's good.
Q. What part of her game makes you...
ROBERTA VINCI: She's a regular player. She plays a lot of spin on my backhand. I have one backhand, so was tough for me. I tried to play more aggressive with my forehand. Sometimes was tough.
She serves better than me today, a lot of kick. Yeah, she's good. She's a great player, yes.
Q. When you say she's an intelligent player, what do you mean by that?
ROBERTA VINCI: I think she has a good hand, good tactics. She plays good forehand, high. Sometimes she try to play also back, good back. She has a good kick.
She's not like, you know, all the players, poom, poom. She's a little bit more, yeah, intelligent. The point is always a lot of rallies.
She miss not a lot today. Probably she's in confidence, too. She's young, 19 years old. I'm 33, c'mon (laughter).
She has a good future, yes.
