But I think it's a different thing to play with the light in the evening, especially for me, because I play all my match in the morning. It was the difference. Q. Were you very nervous? ELENA DEMENTIEVA: No, just a little bit. Q. Was there any way you could have found yourself into the match in the second set? Could you not find your game at all?
