When I'm losing a match, it's not because of my size. I beat already a lot of top-10 players, I know that I'm close to there. The size is really not a problem. I'm really not thinking about this anymore.
I have never been so disappointed. It could have gone either way. It was that close.
He was just too good. If you are going to beat him, you have to beat him in the first round. He gets better the more matches he plays.
I already lost two tie-break. I never played a match that was so close...to go out like this is tough. What can you do?
I was not feeling too bad. Andy was in worse shape than me in the fifth. I think I was really unlucky not to break him. His serve all the time was still there.
We were almost laughing at him, and now he's laughing at us. He's No.1, easy. And really, when he was young, at the beginning, he was really bad.
You fight for four hours, 20 minutes... I already lost two tiebreakers. I never played a match that was so close... to go out like this is tough. What can you do?
Everything is possible. Ferrer always has better serves but I was more aggressive in my response.
It is very important to get this match. It would get some pressure off Christophe's shoulders.
It's like he's right behind the net when he serves.
The ball was not even touching the line,
I'm feeling really great, moving really great on court and I just hope it carries on. I knew what I had to do today and it worked pretty well for me.
If we want to win, it is very important to get this match, ... It would get some pressure off Christophe's shoulders.
I remember him when we were 13 years old. He was always losing 6-0, 6-1 against everybody in the under-14 tournament.
I played very aggressive today, especially during the important games. I tried to attack as often as possible. The match was very close, even if the result doesn't really show it.
I played a good match. He's just better than me in almost every way.
I didn't expect to win this match because he is one of the best players in the world on grass,
I didn't know he could play that well indoors,
