US OPEN


September 10, 2000


Tatiana Perebiynis


Flushing Meadows, New York

MODERATOR: Questions.

Q. Congratulations on reaching the final of your very first attempt at the US Open. How do you feel?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah, this is my first time and of course I'm so happy because I was playing at US Open first time and from first time in the Finals, it's very good. Yeah, today I was playing okay, but I think Maria Salerni, she was playing much better than me, that's why maybe I didn't have enough (inaudible). But I'm so happy that I'm in the final of a big tournament and from the first time.

Q. How does this compare with the final at Wimbledon?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Sorry?

Q. At Wimbledon, you also met Maria in the final.

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah, yeah.

Q. Is this very different here?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah, that was big problem because they put the final on Court 1, it was like Centre Court.

Q. Is this in Wimbledon?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: And there was a lot of people and, like, maybe 5-6,000. I couldn't do anything with my emotion. That's why it was a big problem with me to play there.

Q. That was at Wimbledon?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah.

Q. But here?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: No, but today, I like when the people are supporting me and it was very good.

Q. Overall, results aside, were you happy with the way you played today?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: What happened?

MODERATOR: You have to speak slowly.

Q. How did you play today?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: I played okay, but I felt a little bit tired because last few matches I played three sets and she played her matches very easy, like 6-2, 6-1. I played a lot. I felt tired.

Q. Do you have an agent?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah, I have.

Q. Have you played any pro events?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: I played some weeks ago $50,000 in Turkey. I won the tournament.

Q. Is that the only tournament?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: Yeah. My ranking, it's 211 now.

Q. Will you play any more junior tournaments?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: I'm going to play last tournament now in New Orleans, Sugar Bowl, and I think it's gonna be my last tournament.

Q. Where do you train?

TATIANA PEREBIYNIS: In Ukraine.
