I think I played a good two sets out there today. I've got to look at it as I've played really well, he couldn't miss anything today. I think everything was working for him.
At the beginning, I just couldn't miss. He played a little better in the second set but from 4-4 I played some really good tennis and came up with the break.
I've got a lot of experience and in the third set I started to play really well. I wanted to get off to a good start and it puts a little less pressure on Alex/
He's so good from the back of the court you can't let him dictate the rallies. But then if you step up, he passes you. I tried to work out the best option, but he was too good.
I didn't do much wrong and didn't lose my serve but he played some really good tennis.
The good thing is that the young players have got some good experience, Andrew's played his first singles and we can get better,
That's a big deal for me to finish the year as the top player. ... It's been a good 2005. I'll be back in the top 40, and I picked up my 15th career title this year in Newport.
