A. MURRAY/J. Del Potro
6-1, 5-7, 6-2
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. How were you feeling physically out there in general? Obviously you had a
very long match against Nadal. How were you feeling?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: So tired. Last night I was with the match in my mind.
I cannot sleep very well. Today I run a lot again, and I don't feel good with
my physical.
But I feel happy. I feel confidence with my game and I did a great tournament,
so I go home with a good week.
Q. What do you think you improved most the last few months?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: The serve, the forehand, and the mind. In this sport you
have to be good with your mind, with your team and everything. That's what I
working.
Q. There was one point where you took an injury timeout towards the end of the
match. What was the problem there?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: Cramping in my legs. It was too tough, the match, and
was normal.
Q. How will you prepare for clay court season now?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: Well, I have like a week to train in clay courts. I have
Monte-Carlo, Rome, and Madrid to be in good shape until Roland Garros.
So I hope I do a great training, good practice to be in good shape for that
tournament.
Q. Where will you be training?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: Home.
Q. You had one time violation, and there were a couple of discussions between
you and Andy throughout the course of the match. What did you say to each
other at the end of the match?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: No, we doesn't have discussions. No, we just ask about
the balls, because many balls was so close. But no discussions. After the
match, I say, Good luck. Playing very good. He say, You did well
yesterday. That's it.
Q. I just wonder, you're going to go to No. 5 in the world on Monday's
rankings. How does that make you feel that you're now part that was very top
bracket of players?
JUAN MARTIN DEL POTRO: It's good for me, for my future. But I don't want to
be 5, I want to be better.
