Agassi not entirely satisfied by Luke Buttigieg Tuesday, January 27, 2004 Defending Australian Open champion Andre Agassi had one of the easier Grand Slam quarter-final outings of his career on Tuesday when Frenchman Sebastien Grosjean retired hurt, but the American wasn't totally satisfied with his comfortable progression. No.4 seed Agassi was in complete control of the match when Grosjean pulled a muscle in his groin, and though the No.9 seed tried to battle on, he walked to the net while trailing 6-2 2-0 and informed the umpire and Agassi that he could not go on. Having extended his winning run at Melbourne Park to 26 matches with the early finish, after winning the title the previous three times he has contested the Open - in 2000, 2001 and last year - Agassi was disappointed not to have played three sets. "Yeah, I would have preferred to finish the match, no question," said the 33-year-old. "Not for any reasons of concern. It's not that I feel like now I'm sort of not prepared. But you just don't want any match to end that way." "I felt like at different stages of the match have sort of different personalities to them. You try to rise to the occasion for what's required. Starting a match is a heck of a lot different than finishing one. It's always nice to play a complete match." Agassi reiterated though that the premature end to the contest did not give him any major worries about his form ahead of a semi-final match-up with either fellow American and world No.1 Andy Roddick, or unseeded Russian Marat Safin, the 2002 Open runner-up. "I don't find myself concerned about anything," Agassi added. "Up to that point in the match, I was feeling really good. So that's really all you can assess. You can't read into it more than that." Unaware that Grosjean was battling the ailment, but having noticed that he was going for his shots more in an attempt to end points quickly, Agassi is already looking forward to the clash between Roddick and Safin. "That's going to be a great match tonight, if both guys are ready physically and mentally, it should be a battle," Agassi said. "It's going to be who plays better on the big points, which is going to be nice to watch." As for his chances of lifting the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup for a fifth time on Sunday, Agassi says his preparation cannot be faulted, and he is again loving playing in a tournament which he believes suits him. "I've had success because I play well here," he said. "It's not that I play well because I necessarily had the success. That's the reason why, because it's a great place for me to play and compete." "I kind of try to come down here ready and prepared, which always gives my confidence a boost when I come down here knowing I'm ready to go as opposed to dealing with some sort of body ache or feeling not rested or not prepared for." -- 結果要對上Safin囉...Andre加油~~!! -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 211.21.173.17
