I think she was nervous, as well. She's a human like everybody.
Alize Cornet
I'm in a daze; I can't believe she lost.

Nobody is smiling broader than Maria Sharapova.

I think it's nearly impossible for a teenager to win a Grand Slam because you don't get to play the top players at an early age, so you don't know what to expect. But if you're good enough, you'll make it in the end.

As soon as women took the court, the entire Royal Box emptied out for tea--except for one woman in front row. Shout out, lady.
Ben Rothenberg
I just cannot believe it. A few years ago, I couldn't play on grass, I was so bad.
Alize Cornet
At the beginning of the match I was a little bit confused, but, yeah,
you know, I was just trying to play my game and just keep going.
Angelique Kerber
I really want to put up a good game, and sometimes I did some stupid
mistakes or didn't use my chances, and that's why I was a little bit
frustrated.
Belinda Bencic
I think everyone in general plays the match of their lives against me.
Serena Williams

Another roller coaster dip for Serena's crazy ride. She may win another major or several more majors, but the last two tournaments represent the first instance where I felt like the tap on her shoulder was from Father Time.
Yeah, I'm feeling a bit of that, too. It has to happen some time. Even to Serena.
I felt that last year in Doha, when she beat Kvitova purely on experience, because she was being pushed around, outplayed most of the way. A certain ennui had crept into her game and continued from then until now. It's a shame that Petra and Serena did not come up together. Petra is the only player whom Serena has really worried about. One of the Williams girls (I don't recall which) said as much a few years ago.
Wow, that Ben Rothenberg tweet is effed up.
How lovely Royal Box - stay KlaSsY!
