I feel that I played an all-around good match today. I held my serve really well today. I was able to hit some excellent passing shots and that kept Jeff at the baseline, which helped swing the match in my favor.
I think it's one of the best matches I've played. I think we both had fun and were enjoying it. ... We played our best tennis and enjoyed the match and enjoyed the moment.
It's tough to play James. His game is really on, especially at this moment, ... I had a chance to serve at 5-4 just to win the second set. But he played great in that game. He played a good tiebreak. He deserved it. He played better today.

He played well. I started playing better in the third set but I wasn't able to win the important points. I needed to be more patient.
The last time we played in Japan, I had eight match points and I lost. So I knew it was going to be a tough match. When he has a tough situation, he always plays really good.
