Goran Ivanisevic

GORAN IVANISEVIC: I don't know, he played okay, so good. I didn't have a lot of chances. I was always behind. I don't know, I think he played much better than me first two sets.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: It was not so great. I served really bad. When I need, I didn't put one first serve in. I didn't play great. I played pretty bad. Actually, I am playing like pretty bad, so it is nothing surprising for me.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: I don't know what I am lacking. I don't know. It is just -- I had a great draw, if I can pick the better draw I couldn't pick it, but just - I don't know. If I cannot win a set with 5-0 in the tiebreaker, so then I don't know what can I win anymore.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: I mean, he was just better. I mean, I couldn't put three balls in the court. Just missed everything. I didn't look for my chance. I didn't come in. I didn't do anything. Just relied on my serve and that was not working, and that is it.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: Sit okay with me, but I just -- I didn't do anything. I mean, he give me a lot of short balls, and I didn't take any advantage of those balls, even now, last point. I mean, I could finish the point ten times to come in and I just hit like an idiot from the back. Sure I am going to miss a --

GORAN IVANISEVIC: I don't know why was that. I have six chances to come in, I didn't come once, so that is the way.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: It is humid. It is okay. I was okay feeling, feeling okay, so I could play another 2, three sets, there was no problem.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: No.

GORAN IVANISEVIC: This is two different type of players, Arias and Costa. Costa is a good player and I mean -- I don't know; I mean, he can play good, but I didn't do anything to hurt him. If I put first serve then, okay, I hit an ace, so something happen. But, if not, I am in trouble. Then I have to hit winners, but you cannot hit winners every time.
