November 21, 1996
HANNOVER, GERMANY
Q. The fact that you already qualified for the semifinals, did that have any bearing on the way you played today?
GORAN IVANISEVIC: Well, I was a little tired. Plus I had a very tough mental match last night. And, it is tough to come up motivated 100%. I knew that I already qualified. I didn't play very well and with that game, I was set and break up, matchpoints, a lot of breakpoints. But, I think if I would lose the match yesterday, I think I would win this match today. And, then some bad balls. Footfault in the second set in the tiebreak. But, I think the schedule, the way they make it here, I don't understand it at all. Some players they have -- it is like -- we are eight players here, eight best players in the word, they make favor to some of the players here. They put us whenever they want. It is a good idea they didn't put me on the other court to play. So, it is okay, I am in the semis. I lost the match. But, tomorrow I have a day off and hopefully Saturday, if I want to win Saturday, I have to play a little better. But, I am going to get rested and I am going to be okay.
