maybe played second sets third
I thought I played maybe better in the second and third sets than I did in the first set,
bad decided exception felt harder hit third
With the exception of a bad four-game stretch, I competed really well. I felt I did a lot of things well. In the third set I decided to try to take it to him more and hit harder and deeper.
feels guess hope last playing position team third
I guess I'm the one in the right place at the right time. I always play first on the last day. I like playing on the third day, and my team has always put me in position to come through.before. It feels good. I just hope I can keep it going.
knew playing push third tough trying
I knew it was going to be tough because Tommy had been playing really well (and) ... he was trying to push that to a third set.
further momentum third tough
If I would have let it go a little further in the third set, he would have had a lot of momentum and it would have been tough for me.
bad balls beginning change good momentum point second side stretch third time
I had a really bad stretch in the second set. I was dumping balls at one point. He had momentum on his side at that point and I thought it would be a good time to try and change it at the beginning of the third set.
awkward compete confidence further gained groove player second swung third
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.
apparent break checked competing except fine mad mental middle people third until watching
It's just frustration. We've all been there, except I have people watching when I break something. I'm mad with the way I played. I was competing well, then just let it get away for no apparent reason. I was fine until I just went mental at the end. I just checked out in the middle of the third set.
bucks dealer excited good
I was down in blackjack, now I'm up 600 bucks so I'm pretty excited about that. My dealer was Alfie, and he was being good to me the other night.
battle coming expecting huge nice
I was coming in expecting just a huge battle and, you know, it's always nice when things go your way,
asked came chair changing clothes good guess referee save shoe tie umpire
I was changing my clothes. Then the referee came and started getting on me about changing my clothes, so that was fun. You know, asked him if he wanted to tie one shoe for me, and I could tie the other one, we could just save time. I guess that wasn't a good idea. But, no, I mean, I was just changing my clothes. I told the chair umpire I was going to.
career guys james year
I think we'll rebound. I think you'll see Robby and James and all those guys have career years this year - I see that happening.
lucky realize
I think we all need to realize how lucky we are to be heal-thy,
forth friend good incredibly loyal room
I think everyone in this room would say that you're an incredibly loyal guy, a good friend and so forth ...
