But I played safely, within myself, not taking too many risks. I knew he is a player who, if things are going well for him, can be very strong.

I think I was very lucky. He had lots of chances in both sets.

I am feeling good with my shoulder and this is the most important thing. I have no pain and I know that if I stay healthy, the results will come.

He deserved to win. The match was very easy for him, ... His style of play didn't surprise me, but what did surprise me was how badly I played.

You have to play perfect and wish that he is not going to be at his best. I think today these two things happened.

It's incredible. (He) could have won just as easily. But things went my way and I had the luck of the tiebreak going in my favor.
