Q: What do you expect from the next match? (against Amélie Mauresmo)
R: She has a completely different game. She is very talented, she is young, she is upcoming and she has nothing to lose when she plays me. I think it is going to be a very difficult match.

Interview with Dominique van Roost (Oct-15-1998) after beating Amélie Mauresmo 6:3 6:4

Q: About the match:
R: When I broke her in the first set it was very important, because she was serving very well and I was struggling for my serve. In the second set I was a little bit more tired than in the first set, but she was not serving as well. I was trying not to get nervous. I was very patient until the moment that I had the opportunity and then I took it. That's why probably today I won the match.

Q: You've had a lot of matches in the last few weeks, have you started to feel generally tired?
R: Yes, I think my body is starting to feel a little bit more tired. I've been playing not too many matches but very hard matches, so I think my body is starting to tell me that it's time for a rest. But I'm still here, so I'll continue until I lose and then probably I'm going to rest a little bit.
