Brian had a couple of tough breaks in the first set and that sort of changed the momentum. But I think he really did a great job.

Brian has a complete game. He serves extremely well. His ground strokes are excellent, volleys are superb.

We caught a couple of breaks that went against us, but that's the things go sometimes.

Brian is the guy who explains it all to me. He gives it to me straight, and he breaks it down and makes it plain, whether you like it or not. ... In the beginning, I might be a little mad or something. But then I listen because I know he has my best interest (in mind).

Things have always sort of happened for me. Something else always comes up.

He's always there. You never have to ask him twice to do something. He's just a great kid. He's aggressive and focused. He's a quiet competitor who is going to dominate the region. No one can beat him in this county. He's just that good.
