Winning or losing, it's always something special and something you'll remember, even more so when the match was as dramatic as it was today. It's even more memorable when I see my kids there with my wife and everything. That's what touched me the most, to be quite honest. The disappointment of the match itself went pretty quickly.

I've done so many interviews over the years in so many different languages. Radios. Papers. Magazines. There's always another interview to do. It's quite something, I have to say.

I fear no one, but respect everyone.

Early in my career, I struggled with consistency, but I couldn't get more consistent than this year.

Confidence? Are you kidding me? I mean, please. Look, some players grow up and play like that. I remember losing junior matches. Just being down 5-2 in the third, and they all just start slapping shots.

You can be stubborn and successful or you can give it up a bit and change things around. For me it's important to have a bit of both.

With all the injury problems we have in men's tennis at the moment, I'm happy to still be standing.
