An interview with:
 
JUSTINE HENIN
 
THE MODERATOR:  Questions, please.

 Q.  Can I have you talk about I guess the way it finished?  5 2, 30 30 there was a call that looked long, and then from there it seemed to have got a little tighter.
 JUSTINE HENIN:  Well, I mean, I don't want to talk any about the end of the match.  I mean, that ball was out.  I mean, it doesn't matter.  It's only one point in the match.
 So I got maybe tense a little bit at the end of the match.  It was quite humid today.  It was very, very humid out there, and the conditions, yeah, weren't that easy.
 And also I played in the night two days ago; I have to play in the day today.  That changes a little bit the rhythm.
 But generally I've been trouble in both beginning of    I mean both sets at the beginning of the sets.  After that, I just had what I had to do.  She played a good rhythm, played a good match.  There was ups and downs.
 I've been able to come into the court, but probably not enough.  But when I had to do a good job, that's what I did.  That's okay.

 Q.  What was most troubling to you about her game?
 JUSTINE HENIN:  Well, she plays well, you know, she runs a lot, and she has pretty good backhand.  She's a real fighter.
 I mean, she has a strong personality, and it was the first time I've played against her.  That's never easy to play someone you don't know.  So that was something new for myself.
 But, I mean, I was glad about my reaction in both sets to come back.  And especially after a good win two days ago, it wasn't that easy today, but I'm glad I'm in, you know, in the last 16.
