Press Conference

P. CARRENO BUSTA/T.A. Tirante

7-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4

THE MODERATOR: Pablo, congratulations. You're in the second week of a Grand Slam. It's been a while. How happy are you, and how happy are you about your performance today?

PABLO CARRENO BUSTA: Yeah, finally in the second week again. No, really happy, no. Of course it's very important to me to be in the second week again, but the most important thing is that I am playing really good tennis. I think that today was a practically perfect match for me.

I played against a really tough opponent on this surface, on clay. He's playing really good with a really good attitude, also. So today I knew that I need to be aggressive, try to dominate the points, because if not, he take his forehand and, well, probably I have to suffer too much (smiling).

So the tactic was perfect since the beginning, and it's true in the third set maybe I lost a little bit the energy. I suffer a little bit there. But after that, in the fourth, I come back again with same energy as the beginning.

Well, happy, no, because in the last game, serving for the match is never easy, no, to finish these matches, and I was very focused with my serve. Very aggressive, also, and I play very, very good.
