BOLELLI-VAVASSORI/Zeballos-Granollers

7-6, 6-4

THE MODERATOR: Questions.

Q. Obviously this is extra special for you being at home. Is there a way each of you could describe how different it feels having that crowd support and what it means to be doing this in Italy.

SIMONE BOLELLI: Well, is amazing feeling. We had the opportunity to play already last year. This year I think we came here more prepared, more focused. The crowd is unbelievable.

I think we played two really good matches. Especially today I think we play even better than the first one. Yeah, great atmosphere. The crowd is pushing us every point. We try to do our best every day.

So we look forward for the third match.

ANDREA VAVASSORI: Yeah, I think the atmosphere was unbelievable. These two matches I enjoyed a lot. I think one of the best atmosphere I ever played.

I'm trying to raise the crowd always in a respectful way, but trying to bring more energy. I think also doubles needs that because it's very fast. I think people also enjoy looking at doubles live.

I think today was a great level match. We played, as Simone said, even better than the first match. Our goal was to put energy every point, trying to stay always together, always eyes on eyes. I think was the key of our victory.

So we will try to do the same in the next matches. We already look forward for the third match of the group. Let's see this week what we bring.
