He sizzled me up with his slice and spins. It was a pleasure to play against him. |
He was a big percentage of the reason I got so emotional. To be honest, whether I had won or lost, it would have been emotional because he was here. |
He was a break of serve up in the third and then he had those match points - but I am the one standing here. I may have looked smooth on the outside, but it was panic on the inside, |
He was hanging tough on my service games and broke me at 6-4, 3-2, ... I had to be careful not to let the momentum shift, and at the end I had to play some tough points to stay in control and close it out...Murray has a big repertoire of shots, a lot of qualities, however, he's got to figure out how he wants to use his potential. If he works hard he'll be a good player. I was impressed by him. |
He was more difficult than I expected. I've never saw him play before, and I expected more rallies, but he served and volleyed a lot. It was hard for me coming from clay at Davis Cup, but I played good shots when I needed to and the main thing is I came through with the win. |
He's a good player. It's as simple as that. He's a terrific scrambler and he brings something else game as a great lefthander. |
He's beaten me enough to believe in his chance ...and on grass I think anything can happen against him. He knows how to win the title here. |
He's been playing well here in the past two years. I'm looking forward to it -- it will be a good challenge and I'll have to play well to beat him. |
He's far off, ... He still has some margin. |
He's good enough with his base, you know, to beat me on a day when I'm not on. But the thing is, I've always been playing so well against him over the last few years now. So I don't think he'll change much. If he does, I would feel it, that he would play maybe little bit more aggressive. But again, that's also maybe a hard thing to do. So I expect him playing the same way like he did the last few times...He could, you know (change things up). But then again he could even run into the knife more brutally. |
He's good enough with his base, you know, to beat me on a day when I'm not on. I've been standing in his way and I think he knows that. The more chances he'll get, the more chances there are that he's also going to beat me. |
He's got a good serve and I think I did well getting it back many times and creating opportunities. It was a tough, tough match and I knew I was going to play when the sun was going down. I thought I did really well today. |
He's got a repertoire of shots, he has slice and his volley is all right. He reads games well. He has potential to become a good player. Consistency is what's missing in his game, and he's not 100 percent sure of his game. |

He's gotten used to big matches now. He is a dangerous opponent. He comes to the net and plays aggressively...But I have played two matches here and am starting to play better. |
