It felt great, ... It means a lot more than the 19th and a lot less than the 21st.
It felt good, it was pain free. I've just got to run faster now, that's all.
I always felt tennis and winning was a byproduct of doing everything right.
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.
Let's be clear about something. I wasn't the winner, tennis was. I never felt I was going to win that match but somehow it just fell my way.
On the heels of our new partnership with Tamarack Resort, we felt that the people of Boise would really embrace Rock-n-Racquets, ... Our intention is to bring this unique event to a market that typically has not had the opportunity to see professional tennis at a whole new level.
The third and fourth set, I felt I was a bit living on the edge with my serve. He was getting a lot of good swings at it, had me under a lot of pressure. But the fifth, I had a few good easy hold games and started to relax a little bit more and hit my spots a little bit better, so that helped me to relax on my return games, as well.

The court was playing pretty fast, it almost felt like playing tennis with golf balls out there. But I am feeling fine physically. I think need a few more matches before I can start competing better.
I don't know if I've ever felt this good here,
I never felt like I was going to win this match but somehow I just found the way,
He outplayed me in the fourth. I was hoping to do something different in the fifth and it felt great.
You think you should take your chance, but then you regret not waiting a couple of more shots. As the match went on, I got real patient and waited for my opportunities and felt pretty good.
