I couldn't pick up my game when I wanted to. I had a big opportunity to beat him. I had my chances. I also had a chance at Wimbledon, but today was my big chance.

I mean, we're on Earth, but he's playing on a different planet.

I mean, we are on Earth, ... but he's playing on a different planet.

I felt a lot of pressure and I was nervous ... The situation was not easy because we were down 0-1. It was important for me to fight through.

I'd never played him and did not know what his tactics would be. So I opened strongly and that's paid off.

This is very tough to digest, but Igor played very well when he was down and fully deserved to win, ... I did not play too well this week but still reached the final. There are many things I can still improve so I am hopeful for the future.
