“American tennis player gave a press conference”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
Mixed feelings
“Both positive and negative emotions. I think the overall level I had good. I think that most of the match I played well and kept my level that is pleasing me. The most difficult part of the game against the best is to maintain the level for a long time. I am satisfied with this aspect of my game. I was disappointed with the end of the first set. I always feel that in a big helmet tournaments, if I win the first set, it’s like a train that is no longer stopped – and it is very difficult. I create great difficulty for the opponent, especially if I keep the level. In the fourth or fifth set, if I have the advantage, I feel very confident.
For the last time, when I played against the current champion at the Great Helmet Tournament, it was Sinner in Australia, and with similar opportunities in the first set, a little upset when I lose the first set in the same way because I just catch my breath. In general, I think I played great tennis. I am satisfied with the evolution of my game on the ground. Yes, I believe there are some more things I try to improve. ”
Close to Alaras level
“For me, this is the closest that I have ever felt-I just talk about Alcaras now-it is the moment when I was closest to its level, when I pressed on him the most, I felt most comfortable in the mine lines, the best as I acted my backuchend when he pressed there. In this sense, the irony is also that it is soil – perhaps its best coating and perhaps my least experienced.
There is a lot of positive that can be taken out of this because, yes, I feel that my game improves significantly. I do not want to be contemptible and say, “Yes, I’m already there,” but I feel that it is close to starting such matches and steadily going on. So, as you said, these are not the worst rivals to lose. After the two matches I lost this year, I consider myself a good player in a big helmet tournaments. Yes, I hope to continue to improve and take the next step, because it is there that I want to be. ”
Soil progress
“I think my movement is one of these aspects. I think I’m moving better. It is very important to me, another key point is Beckhend protection and the ability to move from a neutral state to an attacking in base mutual changes. I believe that if I played against a guy like Alaras, a year or two ago, it would be a one -sided street. If it wasn’t for a very good serving, I would have big problems in the draw. I think today I showed much better results in the game from the main line, in the rally, in “Games in Cats-Mishka”. I felt more comfortable and comfortable. I think that the better I improve my game on this surface and solve some problems with submission and reception, the closer I will be to the level where I want to be. ”
Satisfaction with the match
“I liked it 100%. I think this is the type of match, the level of the game that I like – powerful blows on both sides. I think there were many wonderful draws. Yes, these are the matches for which you live, the atmosphere for which, at least I live, and, know, those situations that you want to get into again and again. ”
In delight in Alaras’s game
“I always say that the best players on every coating are those who are the best moving. I think his movement is an elite level, how he can get another ball. Obviously, his explosive tennis and how he uses the corners and opens the court is very, very difficult. So, in my opinion, all this together – athleticism, feeling near the net, touch and shortened – is a complete set. ”
