I tried not to get too down after the first set. I just waited for a chink in the armor. It came on that double fault for the service break. That was the turning point.

It's a chink in our armor.

I think he's a wonderful horse, but you wonder if the chink in his armor could be that he is a wonderful grass horse, then runs wonderful in the slop, but not so well on the dry dirt track. We hope that could be the case, and that would let us slip in and do a number on him.

Once I got that first break (in the third set), having the sense it was almost over was great. Having that crowd to front run is great.

If he sees a chink in that armor, a crack in the door, that interview will come to a stop.

Those guys carried me through. I had a lot of tough three-set matches this week, and they were my legs in those third sets.
