Quotes

I'm glad she gave me the match, and she was not in the mood

- Victoria Azarenka, Sports Illustrated

It wasn't my best match today, but I'm happy with the score and didn't let her come back into the match ... There were a lot of close games, but I played the big points better.

- Victoria Azarenka, US Open Official Site

She's had good results recently, so I expected a tough match
