A. Radwanska - 22.01.2013

L. NA/A. Radwanska
7-5 6-3

Q.  She is someone who has played well against you.  What is it about her game that makes it a tough matchup for you?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA:  Well, I think she's a very consistent player.  She's always playing on the same level.  It's not like up and down like the other girls.  She's always playing solid tennis.
She definitely play very good today.  Of course, I had my chances.  But when you're not really taking them, it's really turning around and it goes away.

Q.  You played 13 matches to start the year, winning them all.  Did you still feel fresh today or do you think maybe there was too much tennis before the Australian Open?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA:  To be honest, of course I could feel I was playing already a lot of matches.  But of course playing every second day helps a little bit that I could rest between the matches.
But definitely I think I wasn't fast enough today.  Especially from the beginning of the match, I was really running a lot.  It cost me a little too much power in the beginning of the match.
To be honest, I think she played the same matches, also a lot of matches before here, so it was really pretty similar thing for both of us.

Q.  Do you feel like Li Na's forehand is much more consistent compared to previous matches?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA:  Well, to be honest, I think both of her shots, forehand and backhand, are pretty similar.  You know, the conditions sometimes can be a little bit different.
So I don't think any of the shots is worse or better.  I think she's a top player and with all the shots pretty much the same.
