Anke Huber

ANKE HUBER: I played the whole game like I started yesterday. I think I just couldn't find the rhythm and just -- well, she played well. But I just -- wasn't the game I should play.

ANKE HUBER: No. Well, it is also the whole game. I think -- I didn't play well already in practice, so my confidence wasn't that good. It is tough when you are playing like this already when you are practicing and you should go into a match and play much better. Yesterday I played a little bit better in the third set, but still not very good, so it is tough like that.

ANKE HUBER: Well, she served pretty good. She took the ball early. She played very aggressive, so it was pretty difficult for me to find the rhythm in the games.

ANKE HUBER: Yesterday I played from day into the night so that is much easier I think with the lights when you start already when it is dark, it is quite difficult to play, but it is for her the same so, I don't like it too much to play with the lights.

ANKE HUBER: Well, I think if you are playing well in practice then it is already much better for your confidence, if you have a good rhythm; good timings. And, that is what I didn't have already the last couple of days, so I think it gives you confidence already when you are practicing well.
