Azarenza is not only damn loud, she is also quite a good tennis player.
Ranked 3rd in the world, Azarenka managed to reverse a tricky situation in the decider where after being 1 set up, she found herself to be trashed by the Chinese in the 2nd set (6-1). The Belarusian regrouped to eventully win also the 3rd set 6-3 with an impressive display of powerful shots.
‘It brings a lot of confidence,’ she said.
‘But it’s going to be a new week in Melbourne, a new tournament, so for me it’s going to be starting from zero. I’m glad the way I played here through those battles that I went through, so I’ve really tested myself before a big event.
‘I’m just going to try to keep going the same way with the same attitude, the same way I’m playing. There is nothing really better than I could have done this week.’
Li Na had some problem with some Chinese supporter that were keep on shouting during the match.
‘Maybe they think I’m stupid so they coach me,’ defending champion Li Na said. ‘But I would like to say I’m not stupid.
‘I can play very good tennis. I think if they come to see more tennis they will know not to shout. It is something I couldn’t change. I don’t have to listen to what they say. I have to focus on my tennis.’
