It's great to be back in Beijing

Hello, my fans in China. It's really good to be back in my comfortable zone here in Beijing because I always have good results (final in 2009 and title in 2011) here and the fan support is amazing.

I am really impressed to see so many fans gathering even outside the practice court to see me and I always do my best on court to show my appreciation in return. I guess that's why I won the WTA award of Fan Favorite Singles Player two years in a row (Radwanska earned 42.8 percent of the votes last year while China's Li Na finished second with 27 percent).

In fact, the Asia season is really tough at the end of the year and sometimes we feel tired coming here. I played eight matches in 10 days (in Seoul and Tokyo) before Beijing, changing surfaces, balls and different conditions. Every stop, I only had one day to make adjustments. But that's no excuse as a pro tennis player.
