Federer’s Interview

After the match, Roger expressed his happiness with his tennis to comment:

”It’s unusual to lose and then come back to play again, but I did it last year, so I have some experience. I’m very happy with how I played today. Matteo was always going to be difficult with his big serve. I was pretty clean in my own service games and I think that helped today. I hope I can keep it up and maybe even play a bit better in the next match.”

Then Roger added:

”There’s no reason to be too down [after losing the first match to Thiem]. We came here to play three matches and give it all we have. It was the big goal of the season to qualify here, which we did. I had a day off and there’s plenty of ways to get rid of that loss. Hanging out with my kids will do that for me. I was ready and prepared today. That’s what matters the most right now.”
