  • Intro:

    Reaction from players after their first round victories on Wednesday (27th August), the third day of the US Open.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Maria Sharapova, defeated Alexandra Dulgheru 4-6, 6-3, 6-2:

    "I think it was a combination of everything. She played really well. Although I started off really good in the first couple of games, didn't take the opportunity to go up 3-0. After that she started getting a little bit of a rhythm. It was difficult. Obviously the conditions were tough. You start in the sun, you finish under the lights, it was a very long match. Overall I felt like in the end I was in much better shape than she was and I could have played another few sets. Mentally that helped me a lot."
