I've been hearing about this. It's either the changing of the guard or I'm supposed to be passing him something. Is it a torch? Is it a flag? Maybe it's a baton.

It wasn't a good season for me in 2005 and I wanted to try to get off to a good start. And beating a guy of his caliber is what I was looking for.

I'm disappointed right now, but I'm sure that a week from Monday (the start of Wimbledon) I'll be raring to go.

It is very disappointing for me, I was playing really well all week. But the points got longer and longer, with lots of play from the baseline, and my back was just hurting more and more.
