No one is friends with Hewitt and he does not worry me at all.
I haven't played on clay this year - but the clay surface always favors us.
In the beginning it was very tough, Fabrice has a very special game. When I got a bit of confidence I started hitting harder and harder and got good angles near the line.
In the beginning, it was very tough, windy. I was a bit nervous. When I got a bit of confidence, I started hitting harder and better, with angles near to the line.
The strongest feelings I experienced were in Davis Cup. It was the most powerful thing: the victories and the losses. It hits you in a distinct way. It's another level of satisfaction - another level of sadness.
I tried to play my game, but I never couldn't make it. So was tough. Was windy. He played incredible. So was really tough.
I couldn't find my game. His forehand is very good, and he's improved the backhand so much. That's why he's number one in the world.
After the tie-break in the first set, the game followed the path I wanted it to take. Now I don't mind who I play against,
Sometimes the ATP puts a lot of pressure on the players and sometimes you get injured because you play on a dangerous surface. Nothing happens, no one pays for that.
Sometimes we get very frustrated here on court. It is tough to control. It is a mistake.
