Today I got the feeling occasionally that this is great tennis again, |
Today it was a great rhythm I found against David, and I'm surprised it was so quick because I didn't expect this. I always expect the worst. |
Today was a solid performance. |
Today was my best match so far, |
Today was my best match so far, ... It went like I expected really. You know what you're going to get with his game -- baseliner, tough lefty. I tried to shorten the points early on and mix it up with drop shots. I tried to take some chances and not give him the rhythm, and it worked really well. |
Tony came to Hamburg last year, which I thought was pretty early. |
Trying to put on a show? Not really, ... All I'm trying to do is win the match. |
Tying your idols, I think it's every little boy's dream, |
Usually early on I'm looking for my rhythm. Today it was there straight away. It's a good sign, a good feeling. |
We didn't know about Murray that well when we picked the surface, |
We have had many close and tough matches over the last few years. |
We have had some good matches in the past. He's certainly a tough player. |
We have more chance to win on clay than other surfaces when (British player) Greg Rusedski might be a little more dangerous. So I hope to take him a little more out of play with that. |
We know each other's games well enough. He's always difficult to play. |
We played very tough matches at both Cincinnati and Wimbledon, |
