couple felt good morning soon woke
I woke up this morning and felt OK. But as soon as I started moving, it really stiffened up. After a couple of games, I didn't feel so good about my chances.
authority bit ended felt guys hitting needed scared second serve serves tried
I felt like I needed to (get more aggressive), ... I need to make these guys scared of my forehand, and that's what I tried to do today. I tried to serve with a little bit more authority and ended up hitting my second serves great.
birthday felt good run totally wish
I wish I didn't have a birthday during this tournament. This has totally blindsided me. I just felt like I would have a pretty good run here.
beginning controlled felt good
I felt good from the start. I controlled the beginning of each set and that was pretty much it.
control felt normally opposed situations strike time trying whereas
I just felt like the whole time I was trying to find something as opposed to just having it, ... I normally take control of the situations more than that, whereas he was getting first strike tonight.
except felt good
I felt pretty good all the way around, except for that first game.
afraid dork drop fell felt glad hands
It was easy, I could put my hands there and it fell in. It felt soft. I was afraid I'd drop it. If I had I'd have been the dork but he put it right on the money. I'm just glad I could come up with it.
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.
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.
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.
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.
bit felt shock totally
I'm a little bit in shock right now, to be honest. I've never felt better going into a slam. This has totally blindsided me.
