United States Quick Quotes

Q. As you head into the afternoon, do you feel like the team went out and did what you needed this morning?

NATHAN SMITH: Yeah, I think we were looking to get off to a fast start, maybe hold serve with the session or win it, and we did that. We're in a good spot going into this afternoon. We've got to play good. I think it's up for grabs, and the team that plays better this afternoon will probably come out with it.

Q. Obviously this is a dream of yours. I know you want to win it. You're very competitive. Are you going to take a moment this afternoon and look around and take it all in? Are you going to let yourself be able to do that?

NATHAN SMITH: Sure. Maybe, yeah. I'll try.

Q. What's the message at lunch?

NATHAN SMITH: We're where we want to be. We're right where we want to be. Go play well this afternoon.
