I've never really been in the third round in a Grand Slam, and I'm in the fourth round right now. Coming from quallies, I obviously didn't well expect to be in this position, so it's a lot to take in. I'm just very proud of myself with the effort I put in."“I know that I'm playing different tennis, than most of. I don't have the [physical] conditions to play strong, so I need to develop a different kind of weapons for myself. I definitely played differently, and I think it helps me a lot against these players,” she added.
