Interview
with Flavia Pennetta after her win over Aleksandra
Wozniak at the 2009 US Open
Flavia won 6-1, 6-1
Q. You are playing extremely
well right now.
FLAVIA PENNETTA: Yeah, I think I play very good match
today, also. I'm really happy, you know. Still my serve
doesn't work in the way I would like to, but I'm really
happy.
Q. Could you talk about your
tournament run so far? I mean, all three matches, doing
great.
FLAVIA PENNETTA: I think it's the court. Maybe because I
like that court. I don't know, really.
I just was focused on my game. I was talking with my
coach before the match, and they told me to be very
aggressive, to just focus, run in the way I always run.
Everything's going perfect.
Q. Is this your favorite
surface, or...
FLAVIA PENNETTA: Not really. I prefer I like a lot clay
court. But, anyway, here I still playing maybe my best
tennis.
Q. What's caused the resurgence
of your game? I mean, it's just absolutely, you know, all
of a sudden you're doing great. Where is this coming
from?
FLAVIA PENNETTA: I don't know. You have to ask my coach.
No, I just joke. I think I just starting to win more and
more matches. I starting to more confidence and
everything's come, you know.
Tennis, it's very strange sport, because for one point
everything can change. You have to be very mentally very
focused in all the moments.
Q. What's your feeling about the
draw itself? I mean, you're kind of going under the
radar. Everyone is talking about the Serenas and Venuses,
and you're just sliding through doing great. Are you
happy with that somewhat out of the spotlight atmosphere?
FLAVIA PENNETTA: No, I think it's great, you know.
Everything, it's normal. So it's no problem at all.
Q. How about your next match?
FLAVIA PENNETTA: I don't know against who I going to play
because they have to play, so...
Anyway, I think it's going to be very tough. They are
both very good player. In this kind of court they play
very good, so it's gonna be tough match. I have to play
my best tennis.
Q. When you played today, what
was your thought going in? I mean, you said stay
aggressive. You never let her in it.
FLAVIA PENNETTA: Just to be very aggressive from the
beginning, and just to you know, when you play with this
kind of player, you have to be very focused from the
beginning.
Because if you if they see you very strong, they starting
to try different things and they lost the game, you know,
completely. They starting to make a lot of mistakes.
So I just was very focused in the beginning, just see I'm
there from the first point, and it was working pretty
good.
