There was so much wind, it was tough to play good tennis. I'm having trouble getting my confidence back. But I'm working hard and trying to do it.
But, despite all that, I have a lot more good memories than bad of being here and I would love to come back next year.
Everything worked out. I'm satisfied with my game today. If it goes like this, I have good chances to play well in this tournament,
It was a very, very good match and I am happy to have won a five-setter.
I've had a lot of luck. If I didn't I'd be washing bottles in Russia.
I've had good times and bad times. That's me. That's how I am.
I took a risk to come here and start a bit early to prepare for the U.S. Open. I?m praying to God so I will be healthy and will be able to play good tennis in the U.S. Open.
