Kim Clijsters Kept Quotations

I wasn't really thinking about the score. I just tried to keep fighting and just kept running for each ball.

I wasn't playing my best tennis at all for a set and a half, but I was still fighting. I was defending well and I think that's kept me in a lot of games. We had a lot of long rallies, and I think that got her tired.

It is a nice start for me, ... I had to make sure I kept the pressure on and stayed aggressive.

She kept hitting the lines and going for her shots, but the closer it gets, she misses a smash. They'll go for more risks and you get them out of their comfort zone. That's what sometimes makes a difference.

I'm really proud how I came back to win tonight. I kept fighting, kept staying in the points, and I got her tired, as well. It means a lot. As the years go on, every big win seems to mean a lot more.

Mary kept the points a lot shorter. She tried to go for too much at the Open.

I can hit some winners with my forehand and that's where I put on some pressure. My serve kept me in a lot of games, too, ... This is the best that I've felt so far. I was moving well, I was quick on my feet.
