Roger played way too good today. I just lost to a guy who is better. He is the best I have ever played against.
We played once in Australia. We got done with that match and I said, 'He's a top 10 player'. He just seemed to do so many things well. He made you work for every point. I've got to believe he's only got better. I'm looking forward to a good quality match.
It's good to be back on the court healthy and excited. I am still not as comfortable, and that will take a couple of matches. But what was important was that I was getting into good positions, which means I am moving well.
It's frustrating. It's been a long time since I've felt good on the court. It's just getting tiring, that's all.
It's been a tough road but Roger played way too good today, so congratulations to him and well done.
It's been a tough road, but it's been a great road. Roger played way too good today. Congratulations Roger, well done.
It's been a long time since I've felt good on the court. It's just getting tiring, that's all. It never feels good when you're losing often. You know, to have a few good wins and have a good tournament would help me, remind me right now why I'm doing this. But as of right now it's hard to feel that thrilled about it.
I've gotten through two five-setters, and feel surprisingly good. It's a sprint now around the turn and down the homestretch. I'll be in position to give it a good run.
It was a good sign to play a guy where I had to lunge a lot and jump around, ... It was 2 1/2 hours. I felt pretty good.
The ball never came in my range today. I didn't play badly but it certainly wasn't good enough. I needed to settle down, but as soon as I tried to get a rally going, he would take his chances and hit some good passing shots. You've got to credit him with that.
At 1:15 in the morning for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was, ... I don't know if I've ever felt this good here before.
To deal with Jonas the way I did today wasn't easy to do, so I have to feel good about many parts of my game.
First of all, let me say, 1:15 in the morning, for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was. That's awesome. I don't know if I've ever felt so good here before.
There's always a bit of working out between each player to be done. He got off to a good start and I had to play well to close him out, it felt good to get through that way.
