00:00Je pense que j'ai fait beaucoup de choses bien dans le match,
00:10surtout les deux sets,
00:13je pense que j'ai fait beaucoup de choses que j'ai voulu faire
00:21et qu'il m'a fait beaucoup de choses que j'ai voulu faire.
00:35Je pense que j'ai été très agressif,
00:40j'ai voulu faire des balles sur le ground
00:42et j'ai voulu faire des balles que sont un peu shorter.
00:47Je peux prendre des balles sur le forehand et j'ai voulu faire des balles
00:53et j'ai voulu faire des balles sur le forehand.
00:55Je pense que j'ai beaucoup de points.
00:57J'ai fait des balles, j'ai eu le ball que j'ai voulu,
01:03et j'ai juste pas assez de faire avec ça.
01:06Il joue un superbeau, il joue un superbeau,
01:10il joue un superbeau, il joue un superbeau,
01:12ça fait des balles sur le forehand.
01:18Donc j'ai voulu faire des balles qui m'ont malgré tout.
01:22Il y a tout, je pense que j'ai voulu faire des balles sur le forehand.
01:27Il y a tout, je pense que c'est le plus simple.
01:29J'ai voulu faire des balles sur le forehand.
01:31Il y a tout comme ça, j'ai voulu faire des balles sur le forehand.
01:33comme je l'ai aimé.
01:35Et comme je l'ai dit, c'est le plus difficile à faire
01:37de ce point en général.
01:39Parce que les dernières fois que j'ai joué,
01:43surtout en Saadi, je n'ai pas encore eu regardé
01:45ces types de balles.
01:47Il est toujours toujours en offense,
01:50et je n'ai pas encore eu la chance
01:52de pouvoir les battre.
01:54Mais oui, aujourd'hui je l'ai eu et je n'ai pas
01:57clinique enough en finissant
01:59sur des points vraiment très important.
02:03C'était un très grand match,
02:11je pense que c'était le meilleur de l'année.
02:13Je me suis demandé si vous avez des regrets specifices ?
02:17Et qu'est-ce qui se passe ?
02:19Oui, je pense que
02:21il y a beaucoup de choses.
02:23Je pense que si j'ai touché
02:27mon forehand un peu mieux sur des coups,
02:31j'ai eu un peu de break en seconde,
02:33et j'ai mis en position
02:35pour me mettre en place
02:37pour servir la match.
02:39Je pense que les ones que j'ai mis,
02:41il y a un game 15-30,
02:43j'ai mis un four-end,
02:45j'ai eu à l'aiderais
02:47ou j'ai mis un peu de pointe,
02:49j'ai mis le pointe.
02:51On a 30-all,
02:53j'ai mis un peu de break points,
02:55j'ai mis le pointe,
02:57j'ai mis le pointe.
02:59J'acceptais si j'avais mis ça, mais je pense que c'était une bonne opportunité pour gagner le point.
03:04Il y a beaucoup d'opportunités, et la plupart de elles devolvent à me avoir...
03:11Je dirais que la chose qui est frustrante, c'est que la plupart des opportunités qui viennent à la main
03:14devolvent à me avoir le ball que j'ai envie de vraiment attacquer, et juste pas hitting ça bien enough.
03:23Hi, Tello. You said that if you could hold your serve, it's going to be a match.
03:32That was the case pretty during all the match, but how difficult is it to stay focused on your serve
03:39when you're playing Carlos, and second, do you think it's the match where you were the closest to him, maybe?
03:49I mean, recently, I mean, I did win one at one time, you know.
04:01But out of the last two matches, yeah, like I felt like when I played him in Saudi, I didn't even have a...
04:08Like I said, I didn't really even have a chance.
04:10Like, I wasn't ever getting looks in that match to be aggressive, to pull the trigger, to...
04:16He was just always in control, and a bit like that in Tokyo as well.
04:21So, obviously, yeah, the first two sets of this match, I felt like I was getting a lot of opportunities,
04:26and that was because I was returning really well, returning really aggressive.
04:30I don't think it's tough to stay focused on the serve.
04:34You know, I don't think the serve is really an issue in the match.
04:39I think, you know, once we get to the third set, I'm struggling pretty hard with my knee tendinitis.
04:52It starts to have to play back-to-back days, and then I'm playing such an explosive match.
04:58I feel like it gets a little bit tough to, like, bend my knee on my serve once we get, like, that late into the match.
05:05So, that is what it is. I can't really do much about it, but, yeah, the first two sets, I think I did an incredible job serving and returning.
05:14And, you know, I mean, I gave myself all the chances I could possibly ask for the first two sets.
05:20Just on that point of those first two sets being so close, and when it ended up going into a third set,
05:26was there, I mean, not that you didn't stop trying your best, but was there an element of total frustration
05:35and a bit of a letdown or feeling a bit flat or anything like that with the third set?
05:40I mean, there's definitely, like, there's definitely frustration because, like I said, I felt like I had my opportunities,
05:45but, I mean, to be completely honest, it's just the flatness is just my knee.
05:51Like, my knee's completely cooked. There's nothing I can really do.
05:56I've been dealing with it all year. I've had tendonitis all year long.
06:01It didn't start to become a problem in my actual tennis matches until around grass court season,
06:07kind of after grass court season. Up until then, I would only ever feel the pain.
06:11After cooling down, after being done, it was never an issue, and then that's when I started feeling it during matches.
06:16And kind of since that part of the year, I've really struggled to kind of just play back-to-back days without it flaring up.
06:25I feel like if I play one really hard day where I'm, like, moving intensely and playing hard,
06:30then I need a day for it to kind of calm down.
06:33And then Tokyo was the only time this whole year, for whatever reason, I was able to play back-to-back days without pain.
06:40And, yeah, I started feeling it towards the end of the first set, but it didn't really affect me until the third set.
06:52It just got to the point where I was really struggling to bend my back leg on my serve, step into backhands,
06:59load my right leg for, like, an open stance forehand.
07:02It's just like, yeah, I mean, the feeling of flatness is just that, like, I'm really struggling with it.
07:10I don't know, you probably said something that is already an answer to my questions,
07:21because I'm not sure I understood everything you said.
07:24But there were at least three or four forehands that you were two meters, three meters far from the net court.
07:34And I don't know why you hit the dead poles, those poles, on three times out of four on his forehand,
07:45trying to counterfeit him, probably.
07:49But you had a lot of space on the other side.
07:52And I am asking you, do you think it's a matter of being anxious?
07:58I mean, not nervous, but anxious to finish it.
08:03I mean, why this happens?
08:04Because, to be honest, from my point of view, I am not a great player like you are.
08:10They seem to be very easy shots for you, for a player like you.
08:15And I don't know if you will ever see it on TV again or video analysis.
08:19You know, I mean, I think he's great, he's very quick, and he's great at anticipating.
08:26And I think, I don't think the fact that it's going to his forehands is the issue.
08:32It's just that I hit balls in, when I had those easy shots, I hit them in both directions.
08:39And, you know, I think part of it, one aspect of it is he's anticipating well,
08:47and kind of just maybe he can just see by how I'm setting up where I'm going to hit it.
08:52And I think there's also a luck aspect to it as well.
08:55You know, he's just picking a side.
08:57He knows that it's an easy shot.
09:00He's going to pick a side.
09:01And he's picking the right side a lot.
09:03It was probably – I don't know if there's probably ever been a match
09:08where someone's picked the right side on short balls against me more.
09:14And that's obviously why I say it can't all be luck.
09:18You know, he's a great mover, and he anticipates really well,
09:21and I'm sure he anticipated a lot of the shots.
09:23But, yeah, I mean, to be honest, on a lot of the short balls, I tried to mix it up.
09:31Sometimes I hit what I thought was the more obvious shot.
09:33Sometimes I hit what I thought was the less obvious shot for him,
09:36and he seemed to be there every time.
09:40Again, one of the very frustrating parts of the match
09:43is not being clinical, finishing the easy shots sometimes.
09:54Hello, Taylor.
09:55Back at the problem you mentioned that create a pain when you bend your knees,
10:00when you play back to make matches, if I understood well.
10:02How does it happen?
10:03Do you feel it straight away, or is it very progressive?
10:08And, I mean, from a medical point of view, do you know what it is
10:10and how you can deal with it on the long term?
10:12Yeah, I mean, the thing is, in order to deal with this,
10:15you need a certain amount of weeks to strengthen it
10:22where you're not pounding on it playing tennis.
10:24and, unfortunately, that time period that you need,
10:28that does not exist in the tennis season.
10:33Obviously, as you can see, I'm playing yesterday, played a great match.
10:36Today I played two sets at an incredible level.
10:39Why would I ever stop for four to six weeks when I can do this on the court?
10:46It's not, I'm just going to play through.
10:50And, as I said before, as long as I have, for the most part,
10:54as long as I go hard and I have a day to take it easy,
10:58then I'm good again.
10:59It's unfortunate that circumstances,
11:04I have to play two days back-to-back.
11:06And, yeah, I start to feel it when I'm kind of bending, loading,
11:10kind of stomping.
11:11I think a big part of why it got going today is,
11:16one, the match yesterday, and two, I'm returning.
11:18I was returning very explosive in this match,
11:22very, you know, it's one of the best matches I've returned for two sets.
11:27And the pushing off, the landing when I'm returning,
11:30that puts a lot of force through it.
11:34It's just tendonitis, and it's just gotten worse.
11:38And, like I said, I felt it kind of early on,
11:41but it wasn't bad enough to affect me until I think the third set.
11:47You could probably, I don't know,
11:49you could probably line up video and compare side-to-side
11:51and see that in the third set, my back leg is just not bending as much.
11:55It's not loading as much as it was earlier in the match.
11:57I'm, you know, that being said,
12:03it's like Carlos served exceptionally better in the third set.
12:09He got the momentum rolling.
12:11He played great in the third set.
12:15You know, my opportunity to win that match was in the second set,
12:19and I didn't take it.
12:20And I had the chances that I, you know,
12:23I had what I, all I could ask for, like I said.
