Anke Huber

ANKE HUBER: Well, I think I played a very good second set. She also missed a little bit in the second. I was confident. I had a couple of chances in the third set, which I didn't take. I guess that was the reason why I lost. I had some advantages, which I missed maybe too easy. I guess she just played very well in the third set, too. She didn't miss anything. I had to do everything on my own. It was quite hot. The court is not that fast, so it was quite hot to play.

ANKE HUBER: I wasn't happy when I saw it, I have to say. She was the first non-seeded player. It's always tough to play somebody like that first round in a Grand Slam', especially first round, you never start to play great usually. I think I didn't play that bad today; it was maybe my best first round match in a Grand Slam I ever played. It was just a tough one, so... I wasn't happy with the draw at all, that's for sure.
