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.
maybe momentum series shot turn
I want a shot at him, ... Maybe I can turn the momentum in the series with one win. You never know. I want to keep trying.
bit maybe shots top totally
The shots he was able to come up with were very good. Maybe I was a bit spacey out there. I wasn't totally on top of things.
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).
ball felt hit shot won
I felt like I hit the ball pretty well, especially my forehand, which was the shot that essentially won me the match,
likes shots
He likes to go for his shots at the lines, ... I'm going to have to try to take it to him.
beaten credit good hit lean people played seen shots surprised today
I think I would have beaten most people today but credit where it's due, he played a very good match. The shots he was able to come up with were very good. I was surprised that he was able to lean in and hit some of the backhands. ... I haven't seen that before.
bit loving sure
I'm sure with a little bit of TLC (tender loving care) it'll be okay.

I'm not as optimistic about the Masters Cup as I was two days ago,

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.
