“Bring it on. I love it. What's better than playing a night match in this tournament, 30 minutes from where you went to college? Unless the tournament was snack dab in the middle of Sacramento, I can't imagine it being any better.”
“I've been working my whole life for this moment and I feel like I have just cashed in. He may not have been in top for coming back from injury and I've been playing a lot and feeling confident, my body's been feeling fit and rested, so I think a combination of those factors, I think I cashed in on a bit of a lottery ticket, I guess.”
“I knew from the beginning I could play with him. He wasn't giving me a lot of pace, he's that quick he makes you feel he was totally on the offensive.”
“That was one of the greatest factors of my decision in that I had such a great experience here. Every who's in this draw has the same exact chance of winning. I don't like to look at that stuff.”
“I was in command early and then I let it slip away. Looking back you can definitely say (rallying from 40-0) was a changing point in this match. I was able to win five points in a row.”
“I was able to hold my serve fairly early and when you can do that you can take advantage of that by being more aggressive against your opponent's serve.”
