D. Nalbandian - Day 6
Saturday, June 25, 2005
Q. First time I think you've come back from two sets
to love down to win a fiveset match. What did you think
of that and the quality of your opponent today?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: I think he start playing very good.
Maybe in the beginning a little nervous. But then he
played very good and is always tough when you don't
know too much about the other guy, how he's play.
So was very tough in the beginning. In the fourth set,
when I was break down, was very complicate. But I knew
that if I come back in the fourth, for sure I'm gonna
win the fifth.
Q. It was very close in the fourth, though, David. I
think three times you had to save breakpoints. I mean,
was that the key part of the whole match?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: I think so, yeah, yeah. Twosetstolove
down and then I win easy set in the third. And then he
break me quick in the fourth. And then when I break back
in the fourth, he have the chance to break me again.But
I think I try to push him to do mistakes, and maybe he
feel a little bit nervous on one or two points and he
miss one or two easy shots. And then I knew that if I
win the fourth set, everything is going to be to me in
the fifth.
Q. Why were you so confident that you would win the fifth?
Could you see him weakening?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Yeah, I saw that he maybe he plays
less chance in the fourth. He didn't start to running
anymore as the first few sets. So I knew that I had to
keep going at my level, and if he falls down a little
bit in the first, I'm gonna win for sure.
Q. What do you think of his game, his style of play when
he was playing well? What do you think of him as a player?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: He serve very good and he has a very
good return. Looks like he play very confident on grass
courts. So all the time was tough. He have a good forehand,
good backhand, good slice. He's fast. He can see really
good how is the games going. So was very tough.
Q. What do you think he can achieve in the game in the future?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: He's too young. So I'm not a right
person to tell you, but I think he need work more. I
think he lose this match for the physic problems, you know.
I think he have to keep going in the physic.
But he's too young, so he have enough time to work.
Q. I think when you were 18 years old, you were ranked
around 200, 220 maybe. I mean, what was the important
thing then for you to get your ranking up higher and
higher and higher? What was the element of your game
or your work or your ethic that got you up into the
Top 50 and then the Top 10?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: The mind.
Q. The mind.
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Is very important for tennis player.
Q. To believe you can do it?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Yep, yep. Of course you need a physic,
I was tell you before. Because you can have 19 years old
and have Nadal physic, so you don't need more than that.
Q. What did you say to him at the end when you shook hands?
Did you say much to him?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: He do a very good job and very good match.
Q. What was it like for you with the crowd, obviously
a home crowd, supporting a British player? How did you
find it for yourself?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Good. I like it. I like it. Was of
course gonna be that way. I mean, everybody was cheering
for him. But I know for the beginning that it's gonna
be like that.
I just play. I try to play my game and I feel that I
tried my best. So I really enjoyed the crowd.
Q. There were some Argentinians around the stadium. Did
you hear shouts for yourself?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Q. Are you very relieved that you came through, because
it was so close, especially in the fourth? Are you relieved
that you've come through? Did you expect it to be as hard
as it was for you?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: You always you always think that it's
gonna be a very tough match. But he play very good. I mean,
he surprise me a little bit in the beginning.
But then, I don't know, everything is coming natural, you
know, set by set. I started seeing better the game that's
he playing. So if I play with another guy that I play
before, so it's better from the beginning. So that's
was the worst part of the game, I think.
Q. There were quite a few occasions when you were looking
in some frustration down at the grass, down at the court.
Were you frustrated by the bounce of the ball? You seemed
to be frustrated by the quality of the grass.
DAVID NALBANDIAN: Yeah, sometimes I think the bounce are
not good, but of course gonna be like this. I mean, it in
the end of the first week, so many, many matches. And
players are play on that court. But it's part of the game.
Q. Do you feel as good about your game on grass as you did
in the latter stages of 2002? Are you beginning to get to
feel as though you could be a contender again?
DAVID NALBANDIAN: I think so. I think so. I feel like I play
more confidence now than 2002. 2002, it was my first grass
tournament, so I was coming here to see what happen and then
I feel great.
But right now I know how it's gonna be when I'm going to the
court. So I feel more confidence now.
