The Russian who nevertheless made a double fault on his match point rather wanted to be positive than to complain, especially since he has a very simple explanation to explain this error: “In this kind of match, it’s obvious that it’s painful to double fault at this precise moment.

But to be really precise on this moment of the match, I must admit that the point at 5 everywhere was very trying. It literally took my breath away. I couldn’t breathe for a while. The 25 seconds was not enough for me to recover when I had to serve. I should have taken more time even if I got a warning for time violation. It’s a good lesson, next time I think I’ll dare to take the risk. You always learn from your mistakes and I’m still learning ”
