ROGERS MASTERSAugust 9, 2005Paul-Henri MathieuMONTREAL, QUEBEC, P. MATHIEU/A. Roddick 7-5, 6-3 THE MODERATOR: English questions first, please. Q. How does that rank up there for big wins for you? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: What was that? Q. How does it rank in importance? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: It's a great victory for me. I mean, I play a very good match today. I knew, I mean, I could beat him. Two years ago I beat some great players, so I knew I had my chance. Q. Can you talk about that one point that was so fabulous? He lobbed you. PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: I mean, I don't know what to say. I mean, it was a great point. I don't know. I just try to put the ball in play. What a winner. But, I mean, it was a great feeling. When I saw the ball was in, I mean, it's a great feeling. You try to enjoy it. Q. When did you start to feel that you had a very good chance of winning? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: When I broke him back I think in the first set. He broke me at 2-All. At 3-2 I broke him back. I think I knew I had my chance. Q. Could you see a change in him? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: No. I think I was returning very well today, so I really serve pretty good. So I think that was the key. Q. Did you think that long game in the second set with the breakpoints was absolutely crucial? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: At 3-1? Q. Yes. PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: Yes, I mean, it was a very important game for me. I didn't make a lot of first serve. I think it was very big game for me in the second set. Q. What were you telling yourself to do? Play on his backhand? PAUL HENRI MATHIEU: No, I mean, I was trying to playing my game, try to put the ball in play, not to miss so much. And when the ball was short, just go for it. End of FastScripts…. |
