Ferrer wins the round-16 encounter with Nadal, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 6-2. Amazing to see Nadal almost outNadaled, having to run after
every shot like he was always late. Ferrer was running like crazy; even after the 3 hour match, he looked fresh and ready to go for 5 more hours.
This is classic the Serena interview. As expected, she didn’t give credit to Henin. Worse… she said that Henin came up with some lucky shots… huh!
Q. You fought pretty hard to get back into the first set. She played a good tiebreak. Second set, your level seemed to drop.
SERENA WILLIAMS: No, I just think she played better. I just think she made a lot of lucky shots, and I made a lot of errors. I don’t think my level dropped.
Q. You’ve said you feel very strongly that when you’re playing your best you can beat anybody in the world. Has this match done anything to change that feeling or do you still feel that way?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Do you think I played my best?
Q. No, I don’t.
SERENA WILLIAMS: Okay, well, then…
Q. Are you saying that you lost the match rather than Justine won it?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I think that’s usually the case with me, that it’s for me to win or lose.
