feeling good match serve
I don't want to get too high-and-mighty about my serve because I still have one match to go. But I am feeling good about it this week.

The was the slowest second serve I've hit since I was 12. I guess he wasn't expecting it.
excited france great player
Gael is a great young player and everyone in France should be very excited about him,

For two sets, I don't think I could have played better. It was the highest quality match we've played.

I let him get into a groove in the second set. He started getting confidence and swung from the hip. If I'd let it go any further in the third he would have gained a lot of confidence and momentum. He's an awkward player to compete against.
block bomb hit neutral returned served trouble
He served real well and that got him out of trouble a lot. He returned well. I hit a bomb and he'd block it back and I'd be back to neutral again.
bottom points stepped took
Bottom line, he stepped up and took the points and I didn't.
bottom line
Bottom line is they were just better than us this weekend,
