dropped fun hit percentage second tried work
It wasn't a whole lot of fun out there, ... I tried to at least hit a volley, make him work a little bit. And that started to work a little. His percentage dropped later, so I was getting a look at his second serve.
cared mentally work
I feel like I have put more work in mentally and physically, in every which way and I've never cared so much as I do now,
fight work
He comes to work every day with the right attitude, ... You know he's going to make you fight for every point.
played putting since staying work
I haven't played much since Wimbledon. I've been staying in shape, though, and putting in a lot of work on fitness,
badly best complete guy maybe player punch reason work
I put in the work and wanted it so badly but this guy is the best for a reason. He is such a complete player ... maybe I'll just punch him or something, I don't know.
comfort game goal heavy hit level played schedule stuff work
There's always stuff to work on. Obviously, the whole goal is to play well at the Open, ... You kind of try to find your game and find your comfort level and really try to hit your stride. I've always played a pretty heavy schedule in the summer.
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 ...
electricity love night playing
I love playing at night here. The electricity is great.
angles biggest head hit hitting normally serve serves serving teach weapon
His serve is probably the biggest weapon in tennis, ... You can't teach being 6-foot-10. It's like he's serving out of a tree. Just the angles that he's able to create, he makes you hit his serves over your head where you're normally hitting them from around your hip.
chicks
I've got some chicks out there, he's got some sweaty dudes.
calls care decision drive front good people stupid wrong
I think the good thing about challenging calls is they have to be accountable for something, which used to drive me up the wall. Before, they could make a decision and not really care about it. At least they look stupid in front of 15,000 people now if they make the wrong call. That's more fun, right?
worse
I got out there and it was just stiff. It got progressively worse the more I moved. I just didn't feel real comfortable for the whole match.
champion great left roger tough
It's tough but I left nothing out there and Roger is a great champion.
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,
