ATP TOUR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP


November 23, 1996


Goran Ivanisevic


HANNOVER, GERMANY

Q. Goran, there has been some talk about a letter or petition some players have apparently signed here asking for a slower court for next year. Did you sign this one too?

GORAN IVANISEVIC: I don't know. Why should I sign? The court is okay, I think.

Q. But do you know about this letter?

GORAN IVANISEVIC: No.

Q. Goran, in a long match like that, which is so close, how difficult is it to maintain one's concentration when just an occasionally point will change the match?

GORAN IVANISEVIC: It is not easy. I knew I have to keep my cool and -- every time when I was up 30-Love or 15-Love, I never put my first serve in and sometimes I was risking - sometimes went in; sometimes went out. Two most important points I made two doublefaults matchpoint and, in the tiebreaker in the second set. So, he doesn't give a lot of free points. You have to work for every point. And it is not easy when -- he is serving good and I am serving good. It is like war between two servers and then somebody has to crack and I did. I mean, okay, I made two doubles faults last game and he played one good shot and that is it.
