He deserves support. I just hope it's a great standard match. He's always been a real dangerous player. You never know when somebody comes of age. Certainly watching his wins over the last couple weeks have been great, not only here but also in New Haven. There's no question he's doing something better than he used to.
I never felt like I was going to win this match but somehow I just found the way,
He's playing a lot smarter, ... which doesn't give you those free points that make the difference.
It feels like there are not a lot of guys who play the game he (Dent) does and if you're not on your game he's one of the worst to play,
It's frustrating. It's been a long time since I've felt good on the court. It's just getting tiring, that's all.
It's all going to come to an end at one time or another. Until that point, I want to be committed to this and see it through.
He was really hitting the ball clean and big and making me feel like I was a step behind on all of my shots, ... ... It was quality tennis and the tennis stayed pretty high throughout.
I felt like I was playing good tennis and that's a great feeling. It's only the second match, but it's certainly a great one for me.
There's going to be a lot of times out there that I'm going to wish I was 6-10, and there's a lot of times I'm going to thank God that I'm not. I just hope there's more of those times.
At 1:15 in the morning for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was, ... I don't know if I've ever felt this good here before.
He's writing checks that you only hope his body can cash. He plays very hard every single point.
It's always awkward playing somebody for the first time. Tonight I just stayed with executing my shots, stayed comfortable.
I've played No. 1 in the world tennis before and there wasn't a time when I ever felt like a favorite,
It felt great, ... It means a lot more than the 19th and a lot less than the 21st.
