THE MODERATOR: Questions for Pablo.

Q. When you didn't convert the first match points, were you getting concerned at that stage? Also, the dramatic comeback in the tiebreak, how did do that?

PABLO CARRENO BUSTA: Important moments (smiling).

Yeah, it's true when you have three match points and you didn't make it, it's true that you probably thinks lot of things, no? You think a lot of things. Well, maybe you didn't be really focus on your work.

But I didn't have any chances. He played three first serves really strong, really good services. I put two of the three. He make me winner. I didn't make anything wrong there. So I just continue fighting and continue believing.

Then in the tiebreak, I made a big mistake on the first point. On these kind of surfaces, indoor hard, against these kind of players with really good serve and really good strikes, is very difficult, no?

Well, with 6-1 I just try to be calm and try to push thinking on the third set, really. Thinking on the third set because with 6-1, it's very, very tough to win this tiebreak.

I won my two services. After that he didn't play with first serve. I think was the key because we played the point from the baseline. Probably in this moment, he make some mistakes.

But well, is a really important victory for me and I think also for the Team Spain.

Q. You talked after the match against Mensik that you were quite happy with the level but just didn't quite have the push. Do you feel like you had that today? How pleased are you overall with the level that you've brought your two matches?

PABLO CARRENO BUSTA: Of course, when you win the match, it's easier to be happy and to be more comfortable with your game.

But it's true that today in the important moments my serve helped me a lot, with Love-30 or 30-All. I make some free points with my serve. Probably the mistakes that I make the other day, today I make it better.

Is true that Struff didn't have the same level of Mensik. He's also a really tough opponent.

Yeah, very happy with my victory today.
