U.S. OPENAugust 29, 1996Marcelo RiosNEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK Q. Did the disputed calls affect the match at all? MARCELO RIOS: Pardon? Q. The disputed calls, Tarango's complaints? MARCELO RIOS: I think he start to play his game, he's always complaining too much. I think it's not that. I think I play really bad. It was tough to play at night. Balls were going really fast. I think I gave too many chances, lost too many points that I never lost. I think I didn't play my tennis. Q. What is it about playing at night that you don't like? Is it something about the lights? MARCELO RIOS: I don't see the ball like I see during the day. I think it's a bit faster. I play in America, so that's why I play at night. It's not an excuse. I think I just lost. I didn't feel good on the court. That's it. Q. Marcelo, for a player who is established like you are, becoming established top ten in the world, when you sign on with a coach like Nick, I don't imagine -- what's the relationship like? What kind of stuff does he work on? He can't start over with you like he can with a 13 year old kid. MARCELO RIOS: I've just been working with him for two weeks. I think -- maybe I not concentrate too much on the court, work on that, stay more focused, not try to give too many points. I think I'm not hitting good the ball. I've been playing not good. Now I'm going to take a little rest and then get back to the indoors. Q. Is most of what you and he worked on more mental approach strategy, more than technical things with your game? MARCELO RIOS: I have my shots already. I think everyone have his shots already. He not teach me how to hit my shots. He's going to help me with my game, try to improve, more how to be on the court. Q. Did you get upset with Tarango for his complaining? MARCELO RIOS: Well, I know before I went to the court he was going to be like that. I was ready. I don't know, that was the match.
