ITF: Congratulations N_E_A on your entering of the Federer Masters Cup. It is extremely rare for a player as young as you are to have made it to the final tournament for the Elite 8. What are your expectations; how well do you expect yourself do to?
N_E_A: Thankyou. My expectations, I have to admit, are quite low really. I am just thrilled at the mere achivement of qualifying...it means I am in the elite 8; the cream of the crop, better than the rest, if you like. My actually expectations of the event itself are nothing; I just want to go out there and play my game, I do not feel I am representing my Country specifically...I just want to enjoy this privileged time. At the end of the day, only 8 out of the 100s of professionals can say they are good enough for this tournament...I am one of them.
ITF: You have had a great season, with your semifinal run at Wimbledon and now this. Are you confident that you can continue this into next season and continue to surpass everyone's expectations?
N_E_A: I mean, for sure, I can keep improving and keep winning. Will next year be as successful as this year? I predict not. This year has been too much on many levels, so, so much. But I feel next year the French Open is mine to lose, simple as that...for me, I am the best player in the world on clay and I am aiming to dominate that part of the season.
ITF: Thanks, N_E_A, and good luck at the Masters Cup!
