Elena Dementieva
Courtside

Well ladies and gentlemen your winner for Russia first up, Elena Dementieva. Certainly through the first set was it a pretty good hit out?

Oh yeah I mean she’s playing unbelievable well for fifteen years old and very enthusiastic on the court – you know trying to hit as hard as possible, very professional so I was very impressed with her.

And are you making the improvements you would like to see early in the season in your game?

Yeah it’s been a good week here in Perth. I’ve had some good games and some good matches and I really enjoy my time here.

Now there are all sorts of possibilities about making the final about tomorrow. Have you had a word to Igor to keep him motivated, take a set from Andy Murray?

Well I’m going to encourage Igor but i'm sure it’s going to be tough to win against Andy Murray today. So we are very focused on our double mixed and we will try to do everything as possible.

Fingers crossed, we’ll see.

Thank you.

Elena Dementieva.
