He really started out unbelievably to lead 4-1, but I knew that my shots were going too short and that I had to start hitting deeper. From then on I think I returned well, had some good passing shots. |
I had so much respect for him out on court. I hope I can play him again many times ... and why not here? |
I'm thrilled and excited to be in the final. |
It was a great experience to play against him and I hope I will get another opportunity. I am not sure I played very well today as I had problems with my serve and missed a lot of shots when he was slicing to my backhand. But I played better than in the last two finals I lost. I enjoyed myself more. |
Playing against someone like Roger Federer is not easy. I had my chance today, but I guess I made a lot of errors. But I have no complaints. |
Roger is such a great player and I can't say how excited I am to be playing the final against him. Hopefully, I'll be able to maintain my focus and not get overawed by the occasion. |
This is my fourth final and I just hope to enjoy myself and play my game. Previously I haven't been able to do that in finals. It's great to meet the No.1 player in the world, it will be a good experience for me. |
