 THE MODERATOR: Questions. 
 
 Q. It's better to play under the flag of Monte-Carlo than the French flag? 
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: Yes, since I won. But it's been a few years now.  
 
 Q. The match was completely under control? 
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: He was not playing at his best level. I was trying to do my best. It was a one-way match. 
 
 Q. You feel you are adapting well to clay? 
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: I start very early. I was on clay courts as soon as February. 
 This is an advantage compared to those who are coming back from Miami. 
 
 Q. This is home. And it is also a big tournament.  
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: I love it. I have no problems of motivation. Since it's home, I really want to do well here.  
 
 Q. You passed the first round. Weren't you disappointed you had to play on such a small court? After all, you are the local player. 
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: No, it is a Davis Cup court, so I am used to it. Maybe I will get to play on a bigger court tomorrow, but I am not upset. 
 
 Q. People usually think you are French. Does it bother you? 
 JEAN-RENE LISNARD: It is always the same question. Some even criticize me for that. I always remind them that I pay my taxes to France.  
 They think what they want. I don't care.
