Raonic pleased with 'overall improvement in his game'

  • Intro:

    Milos Raonic discusses his third round win at the Australian Open, while Jarkko Nieminen reflects on his tournament after losing to defending champion Stan Wawrinka on Saturday (24th January).

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Milos Raonic, eighth seed (on if he has got better and finding his way through the early stages of Grand Slams):

    "Yes and no. I think I know how to control things better. So I think it might come off that way. But at the same time it was difficult situations I sort of had to fight my way through. I was fortunate enough that I was doing well. From the start of the match I had the focus, right focus, right intentions. I just think my level has increased, so therefore it just sort of carries through."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Milos Raonic, eighth seed (on how he has progressed since Ivan Ljubicic became his coach):

    "I've made great progress. I understand much better what I need to do, how I need to do things. Think that's what him and Ricardo have added to my game the most, is just that peace of mind, how to go about things, especially when it comes to matches. Practices are always changing, but I have my routine, things I follow, things I believe I need to do. Even when things get out of control, I can sort of direct myself back to that and start from there. It's been great with the progress we've been able to make. I think I've improved in all other aspects as well."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Milos Raonic, eighth seed (on Vasek Pospisil):

    "It's unfortunate because he's playing well. He had a tough time at the beginning of last year. He was playing really well last year. I think he's even improved compared to the way he started off last year. To have to go through that again, hopefully this year he'll just be able to shorten down the time if it is really an issue. He was making a bit of a comeback. I don't know how it finished. I know he got one break back."
