Paris : Marketa Vondrousova, beat Petra Martic 7-6, 7-5:

Can you describe your state of mind? Best result in Grand Slam?

"Yeah, I mean, it's not happening every day, right? I'm just really happy with my game. And it was very tough match for me. I beat her for my first time in my life, so it's amazing."

You've got Johanna Konta next. What do you know of her? Are you quite close friends on the tour?

"I played with her twice. I won one time and I lost in Rome, like, three weeks ago. So, I mean, she has great form and it's going to be tough match, but we'll see."

How do you process that match? It seemed like the level was good from what you were trying to execute. You fought incredibly hard towards the end and threw the kitchen sink at her in a lot of ways and she did the same. So how do you kind of work through and process how that match turned out?

"It's hard. I don't know. I still can't make up my mind. I don't know if I'm happy, sad, angry, disappointed, depressed. I think I'm all of it right now. I mean, I really fought as hard as I could. I think from the first match here until the last points today I really, yeah, I left it all. From that point of view, I'm really proud of myself and proud of this tournament. But of course with her, to be in the quarterfinals, and, you know, to lose so close, I felt like I had a chance, but today it wasn't meant to be on my side."

At a presser

What do you think you'll remember most from this tournament?

"Just the emotions that I felt yet again here. It's my favourite tournament, and it's not because it's incredibly organised or whatever. It's just the emotions that I feel when I come here. It was my first tournament where I played so well. And this is, again, the best tournament probably of my career. Not probably, but for sure. Yeah, I mean, I really hope I can go even further here."
