Anna before her 2nd Round match
May 8, 2003

 

 

Practising:
"Janet Lee -- she can play. She's the sweetest girl. She's just too nice," Anna says to Harold.

to ESPN-guy:
"How did you get here? It's pretty far for you guys, isn't it?"

"...we flew, from Miami."

about the zinc oxide (sun protection):
"To answer your question, I burn really easily."

"I get burned, I walk around like a crab."

About hanging around while she's practising:
"It's okay. You've been nice about it. Other people, they just stick a camera in your face. I'm like, 'I'm sorry, you think you know me, but you don't. You just know my name.'"

"Yeah, it's like, how would you like it if I came in your office and bothered you? I'm working here ... But you're nice."

Anna about gossip at Enrique's official Website (Community Area):
"They are writing in this chat room, 'Have you seen how she pads the left side of her bra?' Can you believe that? Like I'm going to worry about that when I'm playing."


"Can you imagine how uncomfortable it would be to wear a padded bra on the court for 2,5 hours?"

"I'm just killing time. I can't believe these people have nothing better to do."

To Harold:
"Can you believe they are saying I wear a padded bra? Before they were saying my boobs were bigger because I was pregnant. Now it's a push-up bra. I'm 21. Maybe I'm just growing."

Anna about 1st Round-match-article:
"'There was the pouty Kournikova. The distracted Kournikova. The determined Kournikova ... ' Can you believe this? They have such imagination."


"No, I'm on the front page. But I just can't believe how they can write this. I wish I had such imagination."


Anna reads on. 'She brought it all with her to the fringes of professional tennis, along with a nice little blue outfit that refused to quite cover her midriff. If her belly button wanted to come out and play, who were we to argue?'

She laughs. "How do they come up with this?"
