These were the moments when I was disappointed and frustrated, when I got so low because it seemed all my hard work had been wasted. But the moments passed, and the motivation to go back to rehab was there again.
From Kim Clijsters
Physically, I feel extremely well, perhaps fitter than ever.
I know that I'm going to have to work hard, keep working hard, and not because of this victory think, 'I'm back.' I don't think like that. I'll definitely work hard. Things are not going to be easy. I might lose first round next week. You never know.
I'm happy I was able to stick through it and was being very disciplined with what I had to do, because I know eventually hard work will pay off. It's only a matter of now just trying to make sure I get matches under my belt and I feel more and more comfortable playing matches.
All my time in rehab has made me appreciate tennis more than ever.
I have a daughter and a family.
Obviously I'm very disappointed. I trained very hard this summer and felt in a good shape to play the U.S. Open.
It makes you also realize, 'OK, I'm excited to play tennis, and I work really hard to be the best tennis player I think I can be,' but I don't waste my time on stupid stuff, you know what I mean.
I would love to do well one last time in Melbourne and my dream would be to win Wimbledon and play in the London Olympics.
When I was younger I used to be devastated if I would lose.
