Press Conference

GAUFF-SINIAKOVA/Errani-Paolini

7-6, 6-3

THE MODERATOR: Sara, Jasmine, not the result that you wanted today, but what an amazing run. What do you take from this great two weeks here at Roland Garros?

SARA ERRANI: Yeah, it was, of course, three weeks for me (smiling). Really long, but of course we have to be happy with our tournament. Today was tough. It's not easy to put it down, but we will continue, for sure.

I think we are still improving. Everything is experience. It was amazing tournament. Today I think we were a bit tired maybe not that... (speaking in Italian).

So I think it was a bit of that but we were near, we had our chances, we couldn't take them. Was of course a great tournament.

JASMINE PAOLINI: Yeah, as Sara said, today is tough to accept that. I think it's been two, almost three weeks here, and they are of course positive weeks, so we have to be happy with these days.

THE MODERATOR: Questions in English.

Q. Tough luck today. I just wondered how it all came together for you two to play together and why you think you work really well as a pair? It's been a really good tournament for you guys.

JASMINE PAOLINI: We started to play together last year at the end of the year when we had the ranking to play together. She asked me last year here in Roland Garros to play doubles together, to try to qualify for Olympics.

Yeah, I think we managed to play well, at least we can play well together, because, you know, we are different but I think we match very good. She's one of the best players, I think, if not -- at the net, and I try to push from the baseline, to serve well.

I think that's our key. We try to improve every week, to play well. It's not easy, because in doubles it's not easy with killer points, okay, here not, but it's not easy to play well every week, but we try.
