Elena Dementieva Hard Quotations

You don't have to be perfect, but you have to try hard. And I did all the time.

I was glad that I could change the match around after that bad first set, ... She was playing like she had nothing to lose, which makes it hard because she really went for winners and was so aggressive. I really wanted to play her again after losing to her last week.

It's hard to say (if she would be able to be among the top-10 by the end of the year). She has everything to do it. But I don't know how soon can she be on the top.

I feel extremely happy. I didn't expect to beat Martina. I was trying real hard and I'm happy I could win.
