INTERNAZIONALI BNL D'ITALIAMay 16, 2019Fernando VerdascoRome, Italy F. VERDASCO/D. Thiem 4-6, 6-4, 7-5 (Transcribed from recorded ATP audio.) Q. 2 hours and 44 minutes. Down the stretch, what gave you the strength to pull it off in the third set? FERNANDO VERDASCO: I don't know. I mean, Dominic is right now for me top three on clay, for sure. Obviously I think that 3-o record for me in the previous matches gives me extra confident. Even losing first set, to still try to still believe that I can come back. I been able to do it. Obviously I think it was an unbelievable match. I think both of us had chances to win the match. I think he played much, much better obviously than the last time we played in Rio. For me is always amazing to beat a player as good as him because, as I say, he's top three for me, and I think for everybody. That gives me a lot of happiness and a lot of hopefully confident. Mentally I think I will be ready for this afternoon, hopefully physically. Let's see physically, no? I hope with the confident that I played this morning, I hope I can play it also now against Karen Khachanov. Super tough match. Last week we played in Madrid, I beat him also 7-5 in the third. Right now I'm just enjoying for a couple hours this victory, because it's not going to be too long, then just get ready for the next one, give it all. Let's see.
