Press Conference

E. RUSE/J. Paolini

6-1, 6-3

THE MODERATOR: How are you feeling after the game?

JASMINE PAOLINI: Not so good. I mean, I couldn't play well today. It was tough. She was hitting very fast. So for me, yeah, I couldn't move fast as usual. Yeah, I'm not happy with my performance.

THE MODERATOR: What are your plans after today?

JASMINE PAOLINI: To play doubles, yeah, with Watson. I hope to play better in doubles.

THE MODERATOR: Do you enjoy doubles?

JASMINE PAOLINI: Yeah, I started to enjoy. Usually I don't play so many doubles. I started like last year. I did final here with Sara Errani in the WTA, so I hope to play a good tournament in doubles here.

THE MODERATOR: Do you think playing as part of a doubles team improves your solo performance as well?

JASMINE PAOLINI: Yes, I think doubles helps to play better, to serve better, to return better. Yeah, I hope to play better next match.
