Press Conference

F. COBOLLI/L. Tien

6-2, 6-2, 6-3

THE MODERATOR: Flavio, well done. How pleased were you with your performance today?

FLAVIO COBOLLI: I'm really happy about the performance, of course. You know, it's my first win on the center court on the Grand Slam, so it means a lot, for sure.

Yeah, now it's time to recover a little bit, and already thinking about the next game that is really important for me.

Yeah, I think I played well also because maybe my opponent today was a little bit tired about the last match that he does last few days. Maybe he help me today to reach the fourth round.

THE MODERATOR: Questions in English.

Q. The part of your draw is so open, so I don't know if you see as a possible gold contender or has got opportunity?

FLAVIO COBOLLI: Ask him. (Laughter.)

Q. You prefer to go match by match?

FLAVIO COBOLLI: No, I'm joking. No, of course I want to think match by match. That's the way that I want to think this week.

I know that there are many possibility to have a new Grand Slam champions, for sure we have new Grand Slam champions, but I don't want to think about this. For sure I have now another tough match.

Also, the next opponent won against Cerundolo, so for sure it will be tough and have to be ready to fight again. So for now I'm thinking about the next one.

Q. I want to follow up in that I know players always like to look match by match, but how do you do it when a tournament turns up like this? What do you go through between matches to stay focused only on the next match?

FLAVIO COBOLLI: It's not easy, because for sure you see the draw. You see all the matches. So we have a lot of time to see the other matches and, you know, it's not easy to stay match by match, but I try to do it.

For now, the only thing that I know is that I won three matches, and I have to play the fourth. So for now, I want to think about this.
