Motivation...
21/08/2005:

After her superb performance defeating 2004 Rogers Cup winner ,and world #3
Amelie Mauresmo in the semi-final. Justine spoke about her feelings about
Saturday's match, and the return of the all Belgian final on Sunday.


You weren't looking so good in the 2nd set. How do you feel about the 3rd set?
"It was pretty strange. I think that I had some ups, and downs in the match.
I started very well even when she came back in the first set, I think I've
been very consistent, won a lot of points with the forehand. I was up 2-Love
in the second, and lost a little bit of energy and aggressivity. She took all
the opportunities. She was serving much better, came to the net much more.
She broke my first game of the third set. I was a little bit scared at that
point that it could be a quick third set, but it turned over. I could break
back very quickly in the third set. That gave me a lot of confidence back. I
think in the third set, I've been very, very consistent."

You played Kim Clijsters many times; but this will be the first for 2005.
Have things changed since your last meeting in Australia ?
"No. I think that every match is different. And who knows what can happen. I
mean, tomorrow's going to be another situation, another kind of match, and
the best will win. I think Kim is in confidence for sure right now. She
played so well in the last few weeks. She proved that here in the States on
hard court she is probably the toughest player to beat. So it's going to be a
tough mission for me tomorrow. I believe I can do it, but I'll have to play
my best tennis.

You're both Belgian, yet separate individuals?
"I think we are very different on and off the court. I think we have two
different kind of personalities, probably totally opposite, two different
kind of games. But many common points. We grew up very close from each other.
We traveled a lot together. We were pretty close when we were younger, but we
knew when you become professional, it's hard to keep the friendship. But we
have a lot of respect for each other. Yeah, but it's a very different game
and very different kind of persons."

Does she challenge you?
"Oh, yeah, I think we know each other very, very well. It's always been a
motivation for both of us to see the good results of the other. So I think
it's great for Belgian tennis that we are back at the same time. It's going
to be, I think, our first match since final of the Australian Open 2004. So
it's a long time ago. I think it's very good for both of us. I hope we can
play good tennis and give something good to the crowd."
