2nd Round
Anna Kournikova beaten by Venus Williams
2:6, 6:7
February 20, 2002

 

 

"I am happy with my game, I have taken a nine-month break, may be I will take that much time to break into the top ten."

"I am happy with my game, and I am just getting there. Give me some more time to get my top rankings back. I need to play more tournaments."

"If you miss eight months I think it takes pretty much the same time to get back, hopefully not longer," said Kournikova.

"The positive thing is that compared to the way I was playing at the end of last year I'm playing much better. My goal is to get back to where I was before my injury, and I have nothing (ranking points) to defend so that's a plus."

She added: "I'm really looking forward to this year and the opportunities I'm going to have, hopefully."
