Li Na (on learning to unleash emotions when she is nervous)I think this is, I don't know, maybe is different, Chinese and Western, because I think the Western people, they like to share how you feeling now. But I don't know how is Chinese, but for myself, if I feeling something, I never try to talk to the team. I always block, you know. I always feeling I'm strong enough, I can fix everything. But this is I think this is weakness. So I think the real strong person, if they feeling something, for sure, they will speak out, because they find to someone can help them to make even stronger.

Serena Williams (on feeling particularly exhausted at this time of the year): Right now I'm on E. We'll see. I'm going to obviously try to put some gas in the tank tonight, go to the gas station and fill up and try. We'll see what I can do. Like I said, I'm really proud that I was even able to stay out there today. And, you know, tomorrow is the final, so obviously everyone gets pumped up. I'm hoping I'll get some adrenaline going tomorrow.

Petra Kvitova (on her overall performance in 2013): Well, I think if somebody told me after the US Open that I will play semifinals here, I think that he's crazy, but now, I mean, I think it takes some days to look back at 2013. But I think it wasn't bad, this tournament, and all season was really up and down. There was tough moments in this season, great moments. I think that this tournament was still one of the best ones.

Peng Shuai (on her bad fall during the second set): I was going for the ball when I was tripped by Hsieh (Su-wei). As a result I skinned both of my knees. When I was about to hit the floor I threw the racquet away and then went down. I didn’t even know if we won the point until Hsieh told me it was the most humiliating play for us by far.

Jelena Jankovic (on the Li Na-Serena Williams showdown in the final): Li Na is playing very well, as well. I think Li Na is in incredible form. But Serena is playing so well, too. So I think it's going to be a great match to watch. I think both of those players deserve to be in the finals. I think the fans are going to enjoy a fun match.
