Gael looked like he was a bit overawed before the match,
excited france great player
Gael is a great young player and everyone in France should be very excited about him,
enjoy florida home lake tennis time
I don't think about tennis 24/7. I enjoy time on the lake at my Florida home and just being lazy on the sofa.
draw easily either extended four game good lucky sets
I don't think it was a good draw for either of us, ... Fortunately I got a little lucky there. I could easily have been extended to four sets and it's anybody's game then.
allow believe best body brain figure game interests needs people solution surgeon takes time
I don't think it takes a brain surgeon to figure out why a lot of people are getting hurt. I believe it's in the best interests of the game for them to come up with an off-season to give us time to recover. You can't play if your body won't allow you. A solution needs to be found.
draw good great
I don't think it's a great draw for me, but at the same time, its probably not a good draw for him either.
highest match played quality
For two sets, I don't think I could have played better. It was the highest quality match we've played.
afraid ball hitting movement played plays shot stretched today whether
I don't know whether it was his movement or hitting the ball on the run. He's not afraid to be stretched out. If he plays like he played today he's got a shot (against Hewitt).
focused gone happened mind three trying
I don't know what would have happened if it had gone to three sets, but my mind was focused on trying to end in two sets.
care hold match mean rest selfless time win year
I don't care if I win another match for the rest of the year, if we can hold up that Cup, I really don't care. That's probably the one time of the year where you can say that and be that selfless and mean it.
care cup hold match rest win
I don?t care if I don?t win another match the rest of the year, if I can hold up that Cup at the end of the year.
base beat people players playing prospects pulling
I don't base my prospects on people pulling out. You have to beat the players playing best.
