Amelie Mauresmo
ATHENS, GREECE, A. MAURESMO/S. Kuznetsova 7-6, 4-6, 6-2

The Moderator Questions for Amelie.

Question We saw from your reaction at the end that this means a lot to you.

AMELIE MAURESMO: Of course, it was a very tough match. You know, I was expecting a tough one. It happened today. So physically and mentally, it was a good one, difficult one, but I went through it. You know, I'm very happy to go in the semis, having a chance to go a little bit further.

Question You had that allergic reaction yesterday. Was there any recurrence of that? And do you know what it was you were allergic to?

AMELIE MAURESMO: No, I don't know what it was, why it was happening yesterday. But it was much better today. I didn't feel anything.

Question Next up is Alicia Molik, who we didn't expect to get to the semifinals.

AMELIE MAURESMO: I'm not surprised by that. I lost against her like two or three weeks ago in San Diego. I thought she was playing really consistent tennis. I'm not surprised at all to see her at this level of the tournament. But I have a good revenge to take. It's going to be a good one.
