Safarova hails 'special' doubles win

  • Intro:

    Reaction from the women's doubles final at the Australian Open on Friday (30th January)

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Lucie Safarova, Czech doubles player
    (On winning a Grand Slam doubles final)

    "It's just so special. I mean, it's hard to describe the feelings. It's like such a huge happiness, because to be a Grand Slam champion, it's just the best what you can have."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Bethanie Mattek-Sands, American doubles player:
    (On if they will keep playing together)

    "We actually haven't even talked about it yet. In the off-season it was literally, Let's play Australian Open. I know some teams kind of plan for the year a little bit. For me, you know, I want to get a chance to see how my hip felt, see how my body felt. That's why I wasn't planning too far ahead. It literally was one tournament initially. Obviously we'll be playing some more."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Bethanie Mattek-Sands, American doubles player:
    (On her opponent Jie Zheng)

    "She goes to me, Four times I've been in the final, I haven't won. You couldn't let me get this one? I'm sorry. She's a great doubles player. I think she's going to do well. I'm not sure if they're continuing to play together this year. They're both great doubles players, and I'm sure they're going to get some titles this year."
