Wimbledon: 25 June - 8 July 2012

Ana Ivanovic - second round

Thursday 28 June 2012

A. IVANOVIC/K. Bondarenko

6‑3, 7‑6

Q. Do you have any superstitions you follow on the court or on the day you're playing?
ANA IVANOVIC: I try not to step on the lines. I try to stay away from superstitions, but sometimes I like to use the same shower and the same bathroom before the match.
But sometimes it's occupied so I go with what's left.

Q. We spoke to the WTA chief executive earlier today about the grunting and noise reduction. They're implementing a system mainly at a junior level to educate. What is your take on the whole thing?
ANA IVANOVIC: Well, obviously it's been a little bit of an issue lately on tour, but I think it's very hard to determine what's the limit. I mean, how can you set that? Then you say you have to go a little bit less squeaky, a little less loud.
I think it would be very hard to implement, to be honest.
