RCA CHAMPIONSHIPSAugust 17, 1995Thomas EnqvistINDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA GREG SHARKO: Thomas' third quarterfinal here in Indy in the last four years. He will be playing Jerome Golmard for the first time. Q. Just maybe if you could talk a little bit about the relative ease you had in the first and last set in contrast to the second set? THOMAS ENQVIST: Yeah, I think I got a very good start today. I was playing really well in the beginning. I served well and after you play such a good set, 6-Love, you always get a little bit of a down period and I got that, I think, and he was playing a little bit better also, so -- but I think I started off the third set good and sharp and then I was serving very well in the second set -- in the third set. Q. Did you refocus after that thinking -- were you concerned at all after dropping that second set? THOMAS ENQVIST: Yeah, I mean, you are always concerned when you lose a set, but I thought I was hitting the ball pretty well. He was just playing a little bit better and I didn't put my first serve in and that was a little bit -- lost a little bit of concentration, I think, but I mean, the third set I played really well. Q. Have you ever run across Jerome before or have you -- have you ever played Jerome anywhere before or seen him play? THOMAS ENQVIST: I see him play. But I never played him before. Today he played my best friend Nicklas, so he beat him, so I mean, he is a very good player, he beat Courier. He is in good shape, so I have to play very good to beat him. Q. You never want to look ahead. But Goran made a comment that he doesn't want to see you on the other side of the net. It would be kind of ironic to have that happen four weeks in a row? THOMAS ENQVIST: It doesn't matter. Either guy you play, you have to play very good to win. I mean, I am just going to try to do my best tomorrow and then I have another match to play and I have to play good to win. Nothing you think about. It is very strange that we play three weeks in a row. Q. You get to a point where you almost think your luck runs out; you don't want to run into him again or -- THOMAS ENQVIST: No, I mean, you don't think like that. When you play such a good player like Goran you know that is going to be a very tight match and it is more things that are going to decide who is going to win the match, I think, and I have obviously been playing very well when I played him. First time he had matchpoint and second time it was very close match, so I had, I mean, the point on my side in those matches. You never know what is going to be next time. GREG SHARKO: Thanks.
