I doubt Lisicki is going to play either. Do you think Melanie is going to try Tokyo and/or Beijing?

Q. What tournaments do you have lined up, and are you going to take any time off?

MELANIE OUDIN: I'm scheduled to play in Quebec City, and then playing Tokyo and Beijing.

Q. Will you play in Quebec City next week?

MELANIE OUDIN: I'm hoping to probably, yeah. (laughter.)

Q. You said you're a perfectionist.

MELANIE OUDIN: Yes

Q. Do you have any concerns that you might put too much pressure or emphasis on your results as an outgrowth of this and that you'll have to try to temper that a little?

MELANIE OUDIN: Well, I came off and I was pretty disappointed, so my coach was like, You've had an incredible two weeks. You should not be as hard on yourself. I'm like, Well, I was disappointed with I thought I could have played better tonight. I thought I played better than in my past matches.

So, for me, I wanted to win more than anything. Losing isn't good enough. But then, I mean, that was right after I had come off. I really think about it, and I really have had an incredible two weeks I should be proud of myself.
