U. HUMBERT/B. Nakashima

7-6, 6-3, 6-7, 7-6

THE MODERATOR: How would you sum that match up for us today?

UGO HUMBERT: Well, it was not easy. I played a really good player. I didn't know him very well. But it was tight. We did three tiebreaks. I'm very happy that I managed well today the last one, yeah.

THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.

Q. I've spoken to a French journalist this morning who said that he felt style was really important to French tennis players. I wondered how much it's important to you, the style in which you play at Wimbledon.

UGO HUMBERT: The style?

Q. Style. The more Roger Federer-esque, for instance, and the style of how you play.

UGO HUMBERT: I don't know about this question, but I have my own style. We have some good players with their own style, and that's it (laughing). I don't know what can I say?

Q. How would you describe your style?

UGO HUMBERT: Very aggressive. When I was young, they compare me to Guy Forget, Henri Leconte. So I really like their game. I feel like I'm someone aggressive. I like to serve well, to go to the net when I can. Yeah, that's it.
