Jerome Golmard

CINCINNATI, OHIO

ATP TOUR REP: You've had some big success here.

JEROME GOLMARD: I beat Carlos Moya. First time I play like this. I play -- because it's my first match in the tournament, and against him it's very tough to play on the back of the court. I play -- I served very well today. I served a lot of first serves and I'm very low key in the first set and after I play very, very well.

Q. How often do you play on hard court tournaments? How often do you get a chance to play this type of court, enough to be comfortable?

JEROME GOLMARD: Beat the Top 10.

Q. Is this your best year?

JEROME GOLMARD: Yes, my best ranking, best match, best everything.

Q. Have you played either Johansson or Tarango?

JEROME GOLMARD: Two times and one time Johansson. Johansson, it was maybe four years ago and Tarango, I play him in one -- first one and last year two -- I bet two time beat two times.
