00:00It means so much. It means the world. All the hard work that I've put in over the last

00:06few years, all the sacrifices I've made, not just me but my family, my girlfriend, my team,

00:12everybody around me, they've just sacrificed their whole lives for me and for me to win

00:17this for them is just amazing. I don't remember what happened on match point, I don't know

00:22if I made my first serve or not, but I think I did and hit a pretty solid forehand to win

00:27and for me that's my thought process through the whole tournament. When I saved the three

00:33match points, I just kind of looked at them as break points, not match points and just

00:37focused on what I had to do on my serve because they were on my serve and it came through.
