I had to be a lot more patient, more selective, when I came forward. It was good a I felt comfortable with a different style. The eight previous times I've seen that fire because I've been at the net giving him a target.

In the first set, I won the big points, and in the second and third sets he was the one who came out on top. He's going to get better and better and has a good game to work with.

I tried a lot of things but he came up with the answers. All credit to him, he's had an incredible year and I think it may get better tomorrow.

Not only was I really pleased with the way I played, I was more interested in how I would feel physically and I feel I came through very, very well,
