Kim Clijsters Matches Quotations

I'm happy I was able to stick through it and was being very disciplined with what I had to do, because I know eventually hard work will pay off. It's only a matter of now just trying to make sure I get matches under my belt and I feel more and more comfortable playing matches.

She definitely hits the ball a lot harder than she used to when I played her in the previous times. By getting more matches and more rhythm and everything, she's going to improve even more.

She just reads it so well and plays it tactically so well. I think by getting more matches and more rhythm she's going to improve even more.

I always have really good matches against her. I always look forward to playing against her because you always have -- she's not a girl who's going to hit you off the court. She's not a girl who hits as hard as, let's say, Lindsay Davenport. But she is a girl that moves incredibly well, can come up with really good shots and never gives up. That's fun to play against someone like that. You can really go for your shots. You always have to expect every ball back again. It's fun to play these kind of matches.

Especially against her, I've lost some big matches already. It's great to win some, as well.

I've been playing well. I've won a lot of good matches here in the past. I'm just glad I'm healthy,

I've lost to her some big matches already, ... It's great to win some, as well. Any victory means a lot. For some reason, since my injury, they mean twice as much now. I enjoy it a lot more. I'm playing well. I don't think I could have done much better with my preparation.

There's a lot of tough players out there. My next match is going to be very tough, too. There's not going to be any easy matches anymore.

I don't want to make excuses because I haven't played so many matches and that this was my first match on clay this season. I had trained and I was ready.
