Quotes from the news wire:
It's so stressful now because every match I play, I'm kind of expecting to play so good, such a clean performance is not realistic in a sport like this where you're playing day in, day out. I probably have to lower the expectation of playing like it's a Wimbledon final every time. There are so many capable players who can play.

I knew from the get-go I wasn't playing as well as I would have liked. I wasn't feeling the ball like I was against (Stefanos) Tsitsipas or (Filip) Krajinović, so I knew I had to just keep my head down and battle today. It was a good mental performance.

I don't know what to say. I'm not sure how I bullied him. He was the one hitting balls at me, he was the one that hit a spectator, he was the one that smacked it out of the stadium, i did nothing towards Stefanos Tsitsipas today that was disrespectful. I was not drilling Stefanos Tsitsipas with balls. To come in here and say I bullied him, that's just soft. We're not cut from the same cloth. I go up against guys who are true competitors.
