Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Ernests Gulbis, lost to Novak Djokovic 6-3 6-3 3-6 6-3: (Q. Ernests, the heat, the hot weather all of a sudden this tournament, how did that affect maybe both of you?)

"I don't know what was it. You saw also Novak. He also didn't feel great at the end of the match. It's just that he was more consistent, especially in the end, you know. He just put the ball twice over the net, and I missed it the third shot. That's it. That was all the difference. The more I play these kind of matches, the more I'm going to get used to these situations."
