With my baby due in the next two weeks, it is not possible for me to come. I wish the event well and am sure it will be a great success and I hope to qualify for next year's Masters Cup in Shanghai,
crack hopefully match pleasing
That's probably the most pleasing thing out of today's match, ... I get another crack at someone (today). I think that every match I play, I'm hopefully going to get better and better.
hopefully pay work
This is what you do your off-season work for and hopefully this is going to pay off.

It wasn't just my stomach, it was my whole body that felt better today. I just felt like I had a lot more energy. Who knows exactly what it is but hopefully it's on the improve and keeps improving each day.

It wasn't the prettiest tennis. Hopefully I can pick up on it.

He's a tough player, especially on this kind of surface. I just had to hang in there, try and grind him down. It wasn't the prettiest tennis, hopefully I can pick up on it.
french game good hopefully next open raise
I feel good and hopefully can raise my game for the French Open next week.
aussie behind bit bounce change crowd good head hopefully next rankings sort tennis work
Hopefully if he can work and put his head down, if he can sort of bounce back and get the crowd behind him and play some good tennis at the Aussie Open, that could set up a bit of a change in the rankings next year.
best clutch couple days good hopefully improve last moments played pressure served
But in the clutch moments I played pretty well. That was probably the best I played, when the pressure was actually on. That's a good sign, but I haven't really served well the last couple of days and hopefully it can improve tomorrow.
felt quite team
We felt like the better team out there in the first set but things didn't quite go our way in the tiebreaker and we didn't take our chances.
babies baby due next possible
With my baby due in the next two weeks, it is not possible for me to come.

When your ranking gets outside 150 or 200, there's no doubt that it's hard for anyone to come back and play well week-in and week-out,

When you've been number one in the world for a couple of years and won a couple of slams and whatever else that's been, you look at the big picture and what motivates you.
