6-1, 3-6, 6-1, 7-6

THE MODERATOR: Bad luck on today's result; can you take any positives from the match today because that last set was very, very close.

TOMAS MACHAC: Yes. The positive was that I wasn't playing good the first set, and I still tried to fight every point, and turned out in the second set it was 6-3 for me. In the first set also I lost my serve badly, so I was a little bit upset with my serving sometimes.

But on the return I had lots of chances. With this guy it's really good to have too many chances, but if I would like to win this match, I probably have to serve better today.
