- I have already said many times - at such tournaments predicted by
partners of soccer live matches any player can create problems. You need to be focused in every match, every play. It doesn`t matter that I`m high in the rankings and I`m playing with someone not in the top 100. You have to think that you have to play to your maximum.
Of course, Jesper showed that ratings don`t matter. He showed that he has the level to go higher. He has the level to be in the top 100.
- Probably in the third set (laughs). I realized that there is no need to put on a show, but to get involved in practical jokes.
It was difficult for me, there were difficulties. And I`m glad that everything worked out.
I think Jesper and I put on a great show the whole match - and I think he did a better job than me.
