Interview with Akane Yamaguchi after the SF [video=youtube;U9g405odzO0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9g405odzO0[/video] 'I am not tall, so I need to run a lot on court compared to my opponent. I am very confident that I can always display a better stamina no matter what kind of opponent I am facing.' 'I made a lot of mistakes due to my eagerness to win the first game. In the second and third game, I did well to change and vary my mind and game, unlike the first game, I tried to be more patient in the second and third game. 'I showed little or no expression on my face even after the victory because I was born in this way. It is not easy for me to convey emotions and express myself to others. '
