But I feel good about the way I played tonight. I was moving well and feeling healthy so it was all good.
Andre was for a time fighting his own personal battles, whatever they were, and wasn't putting his whole heart into the tennis. The way I see it in his eyes, this is just frosting.
A lot changed in my career after failing to No. 141 in the world and coming back and winning in Paris, ... I'm more motivated now than ever to get out there and figure out a way through the battle.
the match of my life on the day of my life.
The first set was pretty scratchy but each set my quality picked up. I just hung on and played a good (tie) breaker.
The challenge is real simple. Most people have weaknesses and most people only have one great shot. Federer doesn't have weaknesses and has a few great shots. So that equates to a problem. You hit it in that corner and that corner and that corner and that corner, over and over again, and you beat him. But you got to do it.
I not only want to play, I want to win. I am really not in the position to do that, so it's not fair to myself or the fans of tennis. I'm going to choose to just try to get my body right and keep working, look at the schedule and see what's next at that point. But right now, I'm not in a position to be out there. I'm way less than 100 percent.

You come out and you know he will get his aces, ... My question was, what I do when I get my racket on the ball.
You can't always hope for matches to go that uneventfully.
