MIRNYI‑NESTOR/Bryan‑Bryan 6‑4, 6‑4

 

BOB and MIKE BRYAN

 

 

Q.  Today you didn’t play your best tennis.  Does this one hurt?  I know the French Open is not the easiest one to win amongst all the Grand Slams.

BOB BRYAN:  Yeah, unfortunately, you know, today wasn’t our best match, you know, of a pretty good clay court season for us.  You know, we got some good stuff going in Nice and carried that until, you know, quite a run of nine in a row.

Today just wasn’t our day.  You know, they came out aggressive and hit some good shots, you know, when I was a little bit cold and heavy at the beginning and maybe caught us a little bit off guard.

Yeah, it’s disappointing because we had been playing some really good ball.  But, you know, they hit some great serves when they needed it.  Yeah, it stings right now, but hopefully we can take some positives and, you know, learn from it and work harder.

There are a couple big ones coming up in the next month or two.

MARIA SHARAPOVA

            Q.  You’ve dominated this match as you have dominated the whole tournament.  How were you feeling today?  How were you feeling just after the match point?

MARIA SHARAPOVA:  Yeah, it’s surreal.  It’s the most unique moment I’ve experienced in my career.  I never thought I would have that.  I thought that when I won Wimbledon at 17, I thought that would be the most treasured moment of my career.

But when I fell down on my knees today I realized that this was extremely special, and even more so.  Yeah.

RAFAEL NADAL

Q.  There are a lot of talk about the weather tomorrow, that maybe it is going to rain all day, and the final could be moved to Monday.  Have you been said anything about it?  What do you think?

RAFAEL NADAL:  What I can think?  What can I think?  If rains, rains, then we play Monday.  That’s all.
