I know that I got too many chances to break his serve, but when he was serving 5-4, 0-40, I think he started to serve well and I couldn't do much.

game great playing pleased together
As I haven't been playing much at all on clay, I am pleased with today's result. It is great to be in the quarters. Little by little, my game is getting together and (I) am getting more and more confident.

And then from the baseline, he was playing pretty well too. So serving well and playing well from the baseline, I didn't get any opportunity to break his serve or anything.

I am satisfied, I felt very well in spite of not having played on clay for a long time.
continued felt fought knew number playing since single win
Since I've started this tournament, I haven't always felt that I've been playing very well. I could see it coming. I knew that if I continued playing like that, I wouldn't be able to win again. So I fought as much as I could. I had a number of opportunities, and I didn't take them. Obviously, he used every single chance. And when I was up 4-love, he used all opportunities, and he did the right thing.
happy opponent strong won
Mikhail was a very strong opponent today, so I am happy I have won the edge,
