THE MODERATOR: Questions in English, please.

Q. What do you think changed for you in that match after the second set?

HOLGER RUNE: Yeah, I think I started all right in the match playing well. Then third set, a bit unlucky. Fourth set I started to feel my knee and then got some treatment. Yeah, never was able to serve and hit my backhand as I was, you know, able to do in the first two sets.

Q. Was it a sudden injury or something you had previously before the match?

HOLGER RUNE: I've had it before. I have not had it for a long time. I don't know. I know what it is, and especially being extremely low on the grass, it can bother that area. You know, obviously didn't expect it to come back, but that can happen, yeah.

Q. Do you think the conditions were a key driver, a factor in the match today?

HOLGER RUNE: Not at all. I mean, if I play normal, I'm beating him nine out of ten times, with all respect for Nicolas Jarry. Obviously today didn't make it a lot easier with my knee, but yeah, it was not great.

Q. Are you worried in any sense about potentially this injury?

HOLGER RUNE: Let's see. I mean, I'm going to check now with the head doctor and physio and will take it from there. It's something that I've had before, and yeah, let's see. I don't know. We need to check with the doctors.
