against cause finals last matches played players record speaks top
He's played enough big matches and his record in finals against top 10 players over the last two years really speaks for itself. I don't think it's really going to cause him a lot of havoc.
bit circuit cup finals indoor masters matches maybe physically played quite run
Especially big ties. When we've played the finals before, quite often I'd played the Masters Cup and the whole indoor circuit and a lot of matches and maybe I was physically run down a little bit going in,
priorities finals records
You always love playing in finals at any tournament. The grand slams and stuff like that are obviously the priorities but any titles go on your record.

This year the majors are the most important things to me.

To rely on wildcards or to go back and play qualifying in some of the Masters Series isn't easy.

Every time I go out wide to plant my foot and go to throw the lob up, I can't.

At the moment it's a bit disappointing. It'll probably hurt for a few days, I'd say.

The grass felt very soft but it will quicken up over the next two weeks,
beating best gives served tim
But, obviously, Tim beating Marat the other night, that gives him a lot of confidence, beating a guy, you know, who's one of the best ball-strikers out there. He served really well today, and volleyed exceptionally well.

There didn't seem to be a whole lot of emotion out there. The first two sets, no one had much to cheer about.

There are a lot of positives that came out of the last two weeks.
crack improve pick prettiest
I got through today's match, but it wasn't the prettiest tennis. I get through to have another crack and try to improve tomorrow. Hopefully, I can pick it up. I'll need to.
blocks game needed plan
I got out of the blocks well today, ... I went out there with a game plan and just executed it. I did what I needed to do and didn't feel that under pressure.
bigger corner
I'd like to think there's lot bigger matches, you know, around the corner for me.
