Wu Di every day got better.

(Di) Yeah today better than before. I like play here. Thank you fans, I get experience.

Well you are on your way. You must say, did playing with Li Na help you over the past week?

(Di) Yes. Thank you Li Na, thank you. Your husband, thank you.

Fantastic, we look forward to seeing your adventures. Li Na, wonderful preparation. You did speak about three opportunities; three singles matches, three mixed, a wonderful way to head to Sydney then Melbourne?

(Na) I was feeling much better and more confident back, and also thanks for my young partner. I was thinking this tournament gives him a lot of experience for whole career so good luck in the season.

You are heading to Sydney. I know during your stay you got a chance to hold some of the Australian wildlife; the little kangaroo and the possum. You much rather play tennis? You felt very nervous I’m lead to believe with those animals?

(Na) Yes I’m feeling playing tennis much easier. For me because that’s the first time to hold it, I really didn’t want to hurt it. So it makes me nervous.

I don’t know if you can take one home but they would be a very good pet I’m sure.

(Na) If not I can come to see them every year.

Nice answer. Off to Sydney, how do you feel? Do you feel like you’re ready to go, then obviously off to the Grand Slam, the Australian Open?

(Na) Yeah I mean these two years I’m do better in Australia, so thanks for the fans who support me. Today’s another story, but I still like to say thanks a lot.

Li Na and Wu Di, thank you very much for your time at the Hopman Cup.
