Lleyton Hewitt Hang Quotations

Momentum changes so much and I think on days like today, when it's so hot out there on court, you know once you start getting down on yourself, you can just snowball. When you're positive out there, it's a lot easier to play good tennis and win lots of games in a row.

Hopefully if he can work and put his head down, if he can sort of bounce back and get the crowd behind him and play some good tennis at the Aussie Open, that could set up a bit of a change in the rankings next year.

In doubles there's only a few points here and there that can change the outcome of the whole match but they played very, very well,

It was pretty tough conditions out there. I just tried to stay mentally tough and hang in.

He's a tough player, especially on this kind of surface. I just had to hang in there, try and grind him down. It wasn't the prettiest tennis, hopefully I can pick up on it.

I just tried hanging in there and waited for my opportunities. It was awfully close.

It took me time to get into the match. He was unstoppable in the first set and I just had to hang in there,

Life hasn't changed a whole heap ? it's obviously going to change,

Got the first break late in the fifth set, then just didn't close it out at 40-15, ... Just a matter of trying to hang in there. I felt like I was returning pretty well the whole match. That sort of kept me in it...I still felt like there was a lot of areas of my game that weren't quite clicking today.

I'm hanging in all right. I'm still in the tournament,
