Mahut: I was feeling tired
Nicholas had to battle with fatigue as he played 8 consecutive singles starting from the qualifications and he has also reached the final in doubles (l. to Karlovic and Kubot) “Yesterday I was feeling really tired, but my physio did a great job to get me ready for today’s match. It was a very tense first set, but after one-all Goffin was missing some shots and I felt more and more confident”
