MELBOURNE, VICTORIA
N. LI/A. Medina Garrigues
3‑0, (ret.)
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. How difficult was it to restart the match after you knew that she was quite injured?
NA LI: I mean, it was really tough, because after she has the tape and then she tried to continue play. So I don't know it's like real or fake, you know. I mean, some player they do that.
After two point I saw she couldn't running and she start to cry. I have to say so sorry for her, because I know the injury for tennis athlete is bad thing.
So I wish she was soon as possible come back to the court.
Q. For you now, momentum, what do you do tomorrow? Have a hit up? Try and get a couple of hours out of yourself? Wasn't really a full match tonight, obviously.
NA LI: Yeah, of course now it's late already. Like before the match start I was make the joke for my team. I say, Other players start at 11:00 am; I start the match at 11:00 p.m.
Right now so late, so I didn't want to change the plan for tomorrow. Just hit and prepare for next round.
Q. Next round is against Kim in a replay of last year's final. How does that prospect feel?
NA LI: Someone make good draw. This only I can say. Also, I think last year in the final I think for me was good remember for the match.
Yeah, after that match I was feeling I really can win the Grand Slam. Yeah, of course it was tough match, so just another challenge for myself.
Q. You've been training in Munich, I think.
NA LI: Yeah.
Q. Was it with Müller‑Wohlfahrt?
NA LI: No, just with my husband.
Q. It was not with a doctor?
NA LI: Yeah, I was with the doctor. Rembeck (ph.)
Q. What do you think you have to do against Clijsters to beat her?
NA LI: I think we play the same way, like play against a mirror. What can I do? Only one day, so I couldn't change anything. Only thing is I just try my best tennis on the court.
Q. What did you learn from the last final here?
NA LI: What I learn? I think, yeah, I mean, last year was the first time to be the finals. I didn't have any experience for the Grand Slam final.
But after Australia I think I doing well in the French Open. So, I mean, next round is not in the final, so I don't need any experience for the final, final experience.
Q. If I remember well, last year you forget about your wedding anniversary.
NA LI: Yeah.
Q. You are going to remember this time?
NA LI: Yeah, I think I can remember this year. (Laughter.) I didn't want to make same mistake for two times, so yeah.
