bit came cup davis definitely diligence due felt last played prepare quick ready time
I feel more prepared. Last year, you know, I didn't - we played Davis Cup in December, so by the time this came around it felt pretty quick to me. I definitely feel like I did more due diligence this year, was a little more ready to go and had a little bit more time to prepare on my terms.
attention coming hold last pressure shown wimbledon year
He's shown that he can hold up to the pressure really well, like at Wimbledon last year. But this year at Wimbledon he has no idea what's coming with the attention he's going to get.
fact matches means open seeds win
There's no such thing as an open draw. The fact that seeds are out means everyone can play. You have to win matches and sets.
aggressive great hit super
He's pretty aggressive from the baseline. He's not super big but he can hit great shots,
felt hopefully kicking looked ok ready second
I'm doing OK I hope. I only felt it at about 5-all in the second set. He was already kicking my butt before that. I'm going to get it looked at and hopefully it will be ready for New York.
aspect ball felt game good hitting success
I felt comfortable with every aspect of my game out there. I was hitting the ball pretty good and getting a lot of success with the slice.
bit break felt game good played returns
I felt like I had a little bit of a momentum, and then he played a pretty good game to break me. He put a lot of returns in off my first serve.
base beat people players playing prospects pulling
I don't base my prospects on people pulling out. You have to beat the players playing best.
clay coming evident felt good grass last match transition week
I felt pretty good coming off of last weekend. The transition coming off grass last week to clay was pretty evident in this match but I thought if I could get through this one I'd be all right.
front people stupid wrong
At least they look stupid in front of 15,000 people now if they make the wrong call. That's more fun, right?
ball hit playing second
I was kind of playing catch-up there in the second set. But I actually feel I hit the ball better in the second set than the first.
cup davis definitely list top
Davis Cup is definitely on the top of my list of priorities.
broke came couple found game good playing second shots stuck turned
Fernando came out playing lights-out in the first couple of sets, and I just stuck around and found a way. It was that one game when I broke in the second set. I made a couple good shots and it turned into a riot.
body energy felt left
I didn't have anything left in my body to use as fuel. I just felt dead. I had no energy after that. I puked out all my fluids and after that I was pretty dehydrated.
