I was serving very good. After I get the break in the third set, for sure, I feel more confident. Especially the last game of the match I really feel like I will not miss the opportunity to win because I had a few great serves at the time.
It was a difficult match from the beginning, ... I was down 3-0 right away. Then I started playing a little more aggressively and was able to win 6-4, 6-4.
Then the match was for him or for me. It was really close all the time, but I really played good at 4-4 in the third set and then won my serve.
It's always difficult to play against a friend. We know each other since many years and he knows my game. I know his game, so it's such a difficult match to play. I was lucky that I win.
The match at the time was more my way. After he broke me to go (up) 3-1 and I broke him back, I felt pretty good. But once he won the second set, the match was completely different. I was having a hard time attacking him. He was returning my serve very well.
The match was close, but after I got the break (in the second game of the third set), I had a lot of confidence. I was playing better and better.
