Maria Sharapova's Interviews

 
Maria Sharapova's Press Conference after Semi Final at Indian Wells 2011
March 18, 2011
Question Do you want to assess the match?
Maria Sharapova Yeah, I mean, she played solid and I was really flat. You know, didn't take care of the short balls when I had the chance and let her get back in the points, and that's something I said was going to be important yesterday.


I didn't execute that and just rushed my shots a lot today, I think. I just didn't have a spark. You know, there's not a lot of energy from my side.
Question Just talk about your serving today. What went wrong?
Maria Sharapova Yeah. I didn't feel like I had enough pace on it, and then I tried to go for a little bit more. I was making more errors and she was just a lot more consistent. She didn't really go for big serves, but she was just really consistent on it and made me play.

March 16, 2011
Question Happy after that? Satisfied? Content? Just okay?
Maria Sharapova Yeah, you know, I'm really happy to be in the semis of this tournament. You know, I felt like I was playing really well for the first set and a half, and then, you know, really let her back in the game.

You know, even 2-0, look at a good second serve, I missed it, and she played some good points. Then after that I was forcing so many things. My first serve -- I was giving her so many looks on second serve.

She's a really aggressive player and puts a lot of pressure on from you the first point, and if you're not the one doing that, you know, it becomes dangerous. That's what happened.

I just started, you know, making too many errors. Yeah. But then, most important thing is I got myself together, and, you know, I focused and regrouped. Yeah, the match is never over till the last point, so, you know, I was really strong, and I'm really happy about that.
Question That's called experience, isn't it? Match experience?
Maria Sharapova Yeah, but it's also just, you know, realizing the situation and, I guess, battling through no matter how good or bad you were playing, and knowing that you still have many points and games ahead of you and just make the most out of it.


Yeah, there's no reason why - if you did it for that period of time in the beginning, there's no reason why you can't continue it, you know. I knew that in my mind.

Maria Sharapova's Press Conference after Fourth Round Match at Indian Wells 2011
March 15, 2011
Question Is there any part of you that can understand or feel empathy with what Dinara was going through out there today? I mean, she's clearly suffering the effects of her injury and loss of confidence. It looked like at one point she was even starting to cry during one of the changeovers.
Maria Sharapova I didn't notice that. It actually seemed like this tournament she was starting to pick up her game and play a lot better. I think that's what she's been working towards. You know, she hasn't had, you know, the results that she's wanted the last two months and she's trying to find her form, and I think this was the tournament where I think she was starting to, you know, get more confidence.

I don't think she played that poorly throughout the match, actually.
Question How about your form? It looks like you're starting to get up to a higher and higher level each round.
Maria Sharapova Yeah, I thought that was going to be important today. You know, it was a little unfortunate I didn't win that first game, because I thought, you know, when you're Love-40 on her serve, you know, played a solid game, and I missed that one shot close to the line.


Yeah, but after that I felt like, you know, I stepped it up. You know, I put a lot of pressure on her from the first ball and felt like she was on the defense. That was really important.

Maria Sharapova's Press Conference after 2nd Round Match at Indian Wells 2011
March 13, 2011
Question Nice start to the tournament?
Maria Sharapova Yeah.
Question Long, hard fought match?
Maria Sharapova Yeah. I haven't played in a long time, and the first set, you know, I felt that a little bit at certain points in the beginning. I was almost a little confused whether I should, you know, be more patient or go for it a little bit more. As I started playing more, I started getting a better feel for her game and for the way I was playing. You know, I came back in that first set and did a good job of, you know, being really aggressive towards the end of it.


In the second set, you know, I had my chances to win the match. You know, maybe played a little bit too risky, went for a little bit more. She played really great defensively throughout the whole match and always made me hit another ball. I stepped it up in the third. So it was a long match and many games, but I think it was a good match for me.
