CHINA OPEN


October 5, 2012


Jo-Wilfried Tsonga


BEIJING, CHINA

J. TSONGA/M. Youzhny
6‑3, 6‑2


THE MODERATOR:  Questions in English.

Q.  I want to ask you how much the extra day off helped after Davydenko retired.
JO‑WILFRIED TSONGA:  I think it was a good thing because I played three sets the day before, and, you know, for me it's good to have some rest, anyway.  But, you know, sometimes it's good; sometimes it's bad.  It's good only when you win after that. 

Q.  Lotus Court seems like an interesting place to play, especially with the sides that are kind of cut out.  It lets light in at weird angles and puts some weird shadows on the court and sounds can come in.  Do you think that it's a good court to play on as a competitor?
JO‑WILFRIED TSONGA:  As a competitor, it's a bit tough, yeah, because there is a lot of light and the stadium is open, and sometimes the ball go from the dark to the light and it's tough to see it.
But, you know, to play tennis, you know, you have to get used to everything.  This is one of the things.

Q.  It seemed like you excelled in all aspects of your game today.  Is there anything you personally are disappointed with?
JO‑WILFRIED TSONGA:  Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed of my game on my baseline, you know, I didn't play really good tennis.  Today it was not brilliant but was enough solid to win it today.
I served well, and, yeah, that's it.
