(Q. Does that feel like a big missed opportunity for you when you look at you were playing well coming to this tournament?)

"Of course it was the match which I could win. On the other side, I'm happy to be in the second week for the first time if I'm not counting Wimbledon from 2012. So I need to think a little bit more positive. I just lost, but of course I think, you know, after couple of days it will be better than now."

(Q. Have you surprised yourself at all at what you've done for the last week, week and a half here in Paris? What are your kind of overall emotions after a big win like this?)

"Well, I think I'm surprising myself every day for a year now already. (Smiling.) Who'd have thought? Not me. Well, I just always try to focus as much as I can on practices and on matches and try to push myself so far as possible. And it was the same today."
