15/09/2006:

The Fed Cup draw ceremony was held today. On Saturday starting at 14:00
(Local time) those fabulous Belgians will go for their second Fed Cup title
with Justine leading her team that includes Kirsten (Aka: Flipper), Caroline
and Leslie. The matches against Italy will be played in the Spiroudome at
Charleroi, Belgium.

"It's super to be in the final. The pressure is not different than in Ostend
(the SF), but the Italians are stronger than the Americans. The Fed Cup is
always something very special and I look forward to it" - Flipper

"I trust Kirsten. She can do something special. I don't have a lot of time to
get used to the surface and the conditions but we play at home and it is going
to be an advantage for us. I can lose a match just as Kirsten can gain one
or two; our rankings won't matter. I already did a practice session in the
morning (Thursday) and a second training session in the afternoon. I am not
yet at 100%, but regardless if I'm 70, 80, 90 or 100 percent this weekend: I
will give all!" - Justine
