AUSTRALIAN OPENJanuary 21, 2017Dominic ThiemMelbourne, Victoria, Australia D. THIEM/B. Paire 6-1, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 THE MODERATOR: Questions, please. Q. What were your thoughts on today's match? DOMINIC THIEM: I had a really good start, obviously. I mean, he was not really there in the beginning. He was giving me the set almost, and then he changed his game a little bit. He was playing much better. I didn't know the right answers straightaway. Yeah, it was set 2 until set 4 was really close and tight match with a lot of breaks. Yeah, could be easily a fifth, but I'm happy to be through in four. Q. Did it take you a while to adjust as opposed to throw you off a little bit, the way he did fight back in that second set? DOMINIC THIEM: Second set? Q. Yeah, the way he came back into the match. DOMINIC THIEM: Yeah, he just started to play better. Of course I expected it, because it was -- it's normal that he doesn't continue like in the first set. It was pretty uncomfortable for me, all his dropshots and his -- he was coming to the net a lot. So he was -- he knew how to hurt me. Yeah, break up also in the third. Yeah, was pretty lucky for me to win these two sets. Q. David Goffin had a good win over Karlovic. What's your thoughts on playing him the next round? DOMINIC THIEM: Well, there are not many secrets. It's going to be seventh or eighth match. We are really good friends. We had already some very important and good matches in the past. I hope it's gonna be another one. Yeah, I would say both of us, we have good chances to reach quarters. Q. What happened in the fourth set when you called the trainer? DOMINIC THIEM: I was feeling a little bit some part of my body. Yeah, I'm hitting the ball quite hard, so it's normal that there are some parts of the body hurting. It's no serious issue. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
