'Germany are strong', says Lisicki

Saturday, April 18 2015 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Germany's Sabine Lisicki and Russia's Svetlana Kuznetsova prepare for their Fed Cup semi-final. Kuznetsova will face Germany's Julia Görges before the hosts' Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova faces Lisicki on day one in Russia.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Sabine Lisicki, Germany player (are you surprised to be playing the singles ties):

    "I think that's what makes us strong because we have four amazing singles players and we can swap however we want. So we had two girls arriving very late from the States and that's exactly what this is for. So it's great to have the opportunity to be out there again and we're looking forward to it."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Svetlana Kuznetsova, Russian player:

    "I feel good. I haven't played many matches on clay but on hard (courts) I have started to play much better than at the start of this season so I am looking forward to the tie, especially playing back home, it's nice."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Svetlana Kuznetsova, Russian player (Q: Are you surprised by the German team selection?):

    "Yes it's strange but I guess they have their reasons not to put them (Kerber and Petkova) in them (the singles ties) All four of them are very tough. They all play well and it's going to be difficult anyway."
