US Open: Who said what on day 13
Who said what at the US Open on Saturday, the 13th day of the 2022 championships at Flushing Meadows:
"I'm really glad it's not in cash."
-- Iga Swiatek on receiving her winner's cheque of $2.6 million for winning the women's title.
"Actually after I met Seal, I was like, Even if I'm gonna lose right now I already won this tournament, because I got photo with him."
-- Swiatek on meeting the British singer during the tournament.
"She deservd to win today. I don't like her very much today but it's okay."
-- Ons Jabeur after losing to Swiatek in the final.
"Well, I cried. First thing I did. But it was good to let out some emotions."
-- Jabeur recalling how she dealt with losing the Wimbledon final in July.
"The biggest thing I notice in Rafa is how he fights till the end, how his thoughts are so clear. He's so calm, but at the same time so fired up. I think I really tried to channel that energy during this whole week. That's also what I tried to show, people who look up to me, is to think with a clear head and to not act irrationally."
-- Girls champion Alexandra Eala of the Philippines.
"I don't think it was good. When you make double-fault and people start shouting and screaming, I don't think that is a fair play. I don't think that belongs to tennis."
-- Defeated girls finalist Lucie Havlickova.
"I think in part is the mentality we have like a country. We are fighters."
-- Boys champion Martin Landluce on why Spain produces so many top players.
