THE MODERATOR: We will start with English questions.

Q. You obviously played a great match. I would like to hear how you judge your performance and if you were a bit surprised of yourself as well in such a big stage, first time Davis Cup.

SEONG CHAN HONG: I was practice for this, the Davis Cup, for six months. I was always thinking about Davis Cup. I knew that it was the big event. The courts are big the first time.

I just try my best. I was focus on my tennis just. Yeah, that's it.

Q. You played very well. I don't know what you think of how you played. Your opponent said it, that you have a really good game. What do you make of this two hours and 36 minutes of tennis that we saw from you, the length of the match? I understand you trained for six months, that you prepared very well. I would like to hear what you think of your performance, which according to your opponent was very good. How do you rate your performance today?

SEONG CHAN HONG: (Through translation.) Maybe the people would think that it's quite tough game for both of the players, but as for myself, I was playing really hard. I tried to give it all until the end.

Of course, it was a very tough and good match. I'm happy that I gave it all until the end, until the last stroke. So that's why I have no regrets, no regrets at all.

Q. The fact that you were so close in the score would help Kwon next if he plays the No. 1 of Canada, for Korea and the week? Are we going to see more of these performances from you or the team?

SEONG CHAN HONG: (Through translation.) Of course, this event is international, one of the biggest tennis World Cup, and it is the first time to attend this international event, so definitely is going to help me a lot in the future as a tennis player career.
