We've reached the best of our profession Actually, I'd like to stay No. 1, but I'd like to see Serena No. 1, also. I'm not giving it up, but I'm sure she'll get there.

It was tough. It was sad. I'd like to see an American win this. He obviously had a great chance. But it happens. That's sports. The best part is that he'll have another chance very soon.

Normally, I'm breaking her always. So that was not normal for me today, and my returns just seemed to go a millimeter out. It was pretty disappointing. ... Today wasn't my best day, and it was still 7-6 in the third. I know if I play decent, I'm going to win that kind of match.

Right now, I'm at the top of the world in my game so my focus isn't on when I'm going to end. My focus is on playing the best tennis that I can, and there is no end to that.

She's obviously a great player, doing things on the court that amazing, ... She's motivating other people all over the world to do their best both on the court and off the court, so I think it will be really cool and I regard her.

I did rehab and tried to get better the best that I could. I wasn't playing at 100 percent ? preparation or health ? and I didn't want to come back until I knew I could do that.

I feel like when I'm trying to step it up, I will. I feel like I can get the best out of me,

I feel like I played well, it was one of my best matches this year, everything's getting better.

I don't think Serena had her best day,
