broke came couple found game good playing second shots stuck turned
Fernando came out playing lights-out in the first couple of sets, and I just stuck around and found a way. It was that one game when I broke in the second set. I made a couple good shots and it turned into a riot.
bit came cup davis definitely diligence due felt last played prepare quick ready time
I feel more prepared. Last year, you know, I didn't - we played Davis Cup in December, so by the time this came around it felt pretty quick to me. I definitely feel like I did more due diligence this year, was a little more ready to go and had a little bit more time to prepare on my terms.
ball came court felt guy hit last ripping thinking tonight winners
It's just a little frustrating right now. I felt like tonight I actually hit the ball better than I have over the last two weeks. I came off the court not really thinking I did a whole lot wrong. The guy was pretty much ripping winners from all angles.
again attitude came deep dig fifth
I just had to dig deep in the fifth set, and yet again the never-say-die attitude came out.
asked came chair changing clothes good guess referee save shoe tie umpire
I was changing my clothes. Then the referee came and started getting on me about changing my clothes, so that was fun. You know, asked him if he wanted to tie one shoe for me, and I could tie the other one, we could just save time. I guess that wasn't a good idea. But, no, I mean, I was just changing my clothes. I told the chair umpire I was going to.
came goods
He came up with the goods -- so, well done. He just outplayed me.
beat came care simple took whatever
You can say whatever you want, but they came out, they took care of business. They beat us. It's as simple as that.
bit loving sure
I'm sure with a little bit of TLC (tender loving care) it'll be okay.
cup days masters optimistic
I'm not as optimistic about the Masters Cup as I was two days ago,
early form great happy hitting knew tough
I knew it would be tough today, Tommy has been in great form early this year. I'm happy with the way I'm hitting the ball.
knew playing push third tough trying
I knew it was going to be tough because Tommy had been playing really well (and) ... he was trying to push that to a third set.
against corner elite form forward great looking playing surface turned
I'm looking forward to playing Tommy. He's been playing great. I feel like I'm playing well, I've turned the corner and this will be a great test. He's in form and on a surface he likes. I want to play well against an elite player.
couple days happen hear optimistic
It's still too early. I'm probably going to take a couple of days off. The thing that makes me a little optimistic is it didn't happen on one movement. I didn't hear anything click; I didn't hear anything snap.
asked committed cup davis olympics represent ultimate whether
It's sport's ultimate honor, whether it be the Olympics or any other international competition, to be asked to represent your country. I think that's why all of us are so committed to the Davis Cup cause.
