Williams 'digs deep' to beat Ivanovic in Singapore

Tuesday, October 21 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Player reaction from the WTA Finals in Singapore on Monday after Serena Williams beat Ana Ivanovic 6-4, 6-4 in the opening match in the Red Group.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Serena Williams, USA, world number 1:(On the first set).

    "When I was up 4-1 I think I got a little too confident, the next thing I know it was 4-all, and I was like 'oh, my gosh'. So then I just had to really dig deep and just play the game I should have been playing."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Ana Ivanovic, Serbia, world number 7:

    "Oh, you know it was a great match I played in Australia (the 2014 Australian Open, Ivanovic beat Williams 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 in the quarter-finals) - and, you know, today I felt like I created a lot of opportunities for myself and just in important moments I didn't serve as well as she did, and that made a big difference. But every match it's a new experience, so hopefully I can learn from this one."
