Angelique Kerber: 'I need to cool down'
In a press conference Angelique Kerber analyzed her straight-set first round loss to Anastasia Potapova. The German player said: "I think she played good. I mean, she really played good. You know, I tried my best. I was able to practice the last few days really good, but it was not really, yeah, a long clay court preparation with everything. But at the end, I was happy to at least going on court, playing a match, and of course it's not like I hoped for. But, yeah, she played good. What else can I say?"
"The year was with up-and-downs and right now I lost here the first round, so what should I say? I mean, of course I'm disappointed, but I tried everything the last two weeks to be here to playing a match, and, I mean, I was happy about the process the last days, but at the end, I didn't have really matches before I couldn't practicing very good. So, yeah, at the end I really don't have too much expectation for this tournament. Yeah, I think the feeling what I have before the tournament, it was right."
On her next plans, Kerber added: "I don't know. Right now I need to cool down a little bit and think what I will do the next days, next weeks. For sure I have still to continue the treatments with my foot and with my ankle, and then we will see. I mean, right now I have a little bit more time than expect, but, yeah, I don't know yet what the next schedule for the next weeks."
