THE MODERATOR: Congratulations on your win this evening in three sets. Tell me about your match tonight.

VIKTORIJA GOLUBIC: Well, it was kind of interesting conditions to start because it was kind of cooler weather a little bit and then also very windy. The Court 7 was also really fast court. Like, I didn't expect it to be that fast.

I didn't find my rhythm so well in the beginning. Then I was, like, well, a little bit nervous. Then I kind of had the feeling that she didn't feel it that well either. So I made that first set.

Then at the beginning of the second I could just feel her getting more and more consistent and not missing. Yeah, I just didn't find the key there. So I was, yeah, down in the third. Then somehow, yeah, because I guess I still made her work, so she started to miss a little bit more. I had some opportunities to go off and save, and this is kind of how I turn it around.
