WIMBLEDONJune 28, 2007Akiko MorigamiLONDON, ENGLAND Q. Congratulations. AKIKO MORIGAMI: Thank you. Q. Safina is No. 13 seed. How does it feel to have beaten her? AKIKO MORIGAMI: Well, I actually really didn't feel like I'm playing against a No. 13 seed, just because -- I know that she's a really, really good player, but I've been playing a lot of top ten players well, so I really didn't think, like, oh, I'm playing against No. 13 in the world. I just tried to focus on my game and was very aggressive. Q. And how do you feel your performance was? AKIKO MORIGAMI: I'm pretty satisfied how I played today. I played pretty aggressive, and maybe grass court is not her favorite surface. But I tried to focus on my game, and I'm pretty satisfied how I played today. Q. It seemed as if you had a lot of Japanese support in the crowds. Did that help having people cheering you on? AKIKO MORIGAMI: Yeah, definitely. It's good to have support all the time, and they were pretty supportive, so I'm really happy. Q. What are your hopes for the rest of the tournament? AKIKO MORIGAMI: I think I'm playing Venus next round, and I played against her at the beginning of this year. I lost to her 6-1 in the third, and it was a pretty close match. I'm just going to play my game and just really don't think what the opponent is going to be, I mean, other courts. I just focus on my game. So we'll see how it goes. End of FastScripts |
