AUSTRALIAN OPEN


January 20, 2012


Na Li


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.
