Marat Safin Match Quotations

But it was still a great match. I don't know the last time I played such great tennis. It was probably my best match ever on grass.

I think the crowd should get a video cassette of this match because it was a classic,

I'm taking this tournament very seriously and in this sort of match you have to take your opportunities when they come.

The first set was a bit tough because I hadn't played a match for six months. You are unable to decide where you have to move, when you have to go to the net, whether to put pressure or stay back. I was a bit lost and tense because I knew that I had a chance.

I tried to be as aggressive as I can and try to get into the match very quickly,

It was a very, very good match and I am happy to have won a five-setter.

He played really well and his game caught me off guard a bit. But I was expecting him to give me a tough match because the French always raise their game when they're playing at home in Davis Cup.
