M. SAKKARI/P. Kvitova

6-4, 6-3

THE MODERATOR: If you could, your thoughts on the match.

PETRA KVITOVA: Well, I think that she definitely played better than me today. There is no doubt about it. She deserved to win.

She didn't really miss anything. I tried, but she really served very well. She didn't really give me the chances. Maybe in the first set I did have two chances, but it was really tough to make them.

Yeah, I think I didn't serve the best, I think today, as well. I was a bit dealing with the sun and shadow over there, which was not really easy today. I saw the balls pretty late. That's why probably I missed a lot, as well.

I fought, I tried my best, but she was just definitely the better. In the end of the match, I was still hoping for another chance but didn't come. Yeah, that's it.
