I was prepared for a long match today. The less time I had to spend on court, the better. I was trying to make the points shorter and save some energy.
I now know that no matter what happens out there, how badly I play or how badly I feel, I can still find the strength in me and win it. When I have a difficult time on court again, I will probably think of this final.
I really had a difficult time today. Maybe it has to do with all the matches I have played. Energy-wise I wasn't in the best of shape. At one stage in the match I wasn't really sure if I was able to finish it.
