Feliciano Lopez Australian Open Interview Third Round Day 5 January 20th 2012

F. LOPEZ/J. Isner 6‑3, 6‑7, 6‑4, 6‑7, 6‑1

Q. Well played.

FELICIANO LOPEZ: Thank you.

Q. You were hitting the ball pretty well at the end. I saw the last couple of sets from out wide making passing shots. Did you feel you hit the ball really well by your standards?

FELICIANO LOPEZ: Well, yeah. I think I hit the ball ‑‑ overall the match was great I think from my side. I hit great shots. Sometimes I hit a little bit too much, too many double faults at one point, but overall I think I played great. I played great points. For get the break in the fifth set I hit great passing shot.

So I'm happy with my performance.

Q. How did you deal with his serve, second biggest serve in the big in the game?

FELICIANO LOPEZ: Well, you know that you have to deal with it. You just try to be focused when you serve, because one break against John is probably one set. This is what I have to do, no?

I'm so lucky because I have also a good serve. So I think to play Johnny the way I played today I have to be happy, because this is really difficult player to play.
