SZOCS BSZOCS Bernadette

On the match:

”We played very good tactics and I think they didn’t like our tactics, so this was also a really big plus for us.”

On their tactic:
"Sometimes we had to stop the game, sometimes we had to open, sometimes we had to play harder, sometimes we had to play with rotations, we always had to change. It wasn’t just one tactics, we should have a minimum of two-three tactics against them.”

On offers she got when doubles partner Sofia Polcanova (AUT) was injured last year:
”Some other players asked me to play doubles with them but I said that ’no, I will wait for her (Polcanova) because I knew that after her operation she will get well and we were always playing well together, why change? I preferred to wait and after that everything would be fine and we could win gold and medals in all tournaments, than to change my partner and not win.”

On the teamwork with Polcanova:
”We are also good friends and I think this is also helping us at the table. We are listening to each other, we know how to speak to each other when we are in a difficult moment and I think this is a plus for us.”

On them not having lost a game in the tournament so far:
”We hope to keep it like this and to win the gold. Then we would make history, not losing a game.”
