Kyrgios. I played good tactical tennis

Nick explained what helped him to win this match “You don’t really see too many of those matches go that quick, but I thought he was really aggressive from the get-go. Every forehand he had he was trying to really pull the trigger. I didn’t feel he felt comfortable extending the rallies.I thought there was going to be a lot more rallies today; I served well and I returned well. I just played good tactical tennis.”

 

Next vs. Gasquet

Nick will play Richard Gasquet in the 3rd round. The head to head is 5-2 for the Frenchman that also has a 2-0 winning record on clay against the Australian.
