my fitness is not there yet. But it will just take a lot of matches like
this. You know, I play much much better than this in practices, so I
need to be able to put that into my matches," she said."To get a win …
without being at my best today, gives me, gives me more confidence, but
I still have a lot of things to work on." "You know, I haven't … really
played a competitive match, a proper match on the tour, for more than
two years. These girls are actually supposed to beat me. So I don't
think I have any pressure on me. I've proved that I can play tennis with
the best, and I have nothing to prove."

returning to Melbourne in October."Not my best match obviously but very
happy for the first one and I just have to try and build on this.There's
a long way to go. I didn't pretty much touch my racquet for six months
and fitness either, so I've come a long way and done as much as I can do
in training. "My next part is to try and build on my matches and play
well in my matches which is very tough.''
