finally good huge result
To get the result is a huge boost. It was a good one to finally win.
believer certainly hard hard-work pay results shown somewhere work
It certainly hasn't shown in my results yet, but I'm a big believer the hard work you put in will pay off somewhere down the line.
best confident results
I didn't play my best but I didn't play too badly. I feel confident if I keep working hard, the results will come.
ball bottom coming easy great hitting level playing results since time won
It's not easy coming back from a long lay-off but it was great to be back playing. It was my first time back here since I won in 2003. I had great preparation and I've been hitting the ball well in practice, but at the level we are playing at results are the bottom line.
attacking coming difficult felt forward good huge obviously passing picking record result returning style time
As my record states, he's the most difficult for me to play if I'm attacking and coming forward all the time because he's so good at returning and then picking off the passing shots. It was good that I felt much more comfortable with a different style today, and obviously to get the result is a huge boost.
difficult doubts purpose results summer terms
It's been a difficult summer for me. I haven't had any results at all. Actually, in terms of the purpose that I've had, it's been much, much better. That's why when I keep doing the right things, I've got no doubts my results will get better.
difficult dominated doubt months problems results
There's no doubt it's been a difficult 15 or 16 months and that's been probably dominated more by back problems than my results on the court.
results right-thing doing-the-right-thing
I'll keep doing the right things and the results will come
goal qualify
To be honest, the goal was to qualify for Houston.
birthday bonus far finish good
Everything so far has been a bonus and this is a good way to finish my birthday.
andy beat best events level massive masters matches reason series six win
At the Masters Series events, you have to win six matches and you play the very best guys. But once you can beat Roddick and Hewitt, there's no reason why you can't do it. It's another level for Andy but not a massive step.
great played playing shots taking
First and foremost, he played some great tennis. He was the one playing very aggressively and taking shots on.
issue practicing trying
When it does get irritated, you get a lot of inflammation in that area. It's very difficult, if you're practicing and trying to play, to keep that down. That was really the issue today.
both good great hit played
We've never played before, ... But I've got a pretty good idea of how he plays. He's a great shot-maker and he can hit both his forehand and backhand very well.
