Before come to the court, I mean, Carlos was talk to me because he already saw what happen. I was like, I can't catch the ball, he was hit so slice, I couldn't catch the right time. But I think he was happy. For his job, he was make me unhappy, I think is his job. Yeah, I saw today the match should be so tough because I know how good she will slice on the grass court. But I was surprise today how was I hit on the court. Is totally different than last match. Last match I was feeling like it's not terrible, but I was feeling so tired.
