What The Players Said:

Cilic: "I was surprised with the level of his game. It's not that I underestimated him; it's just that I did not expect this level of tennis in his first major final. There were no ups and downs in his game. I had to earn every point. I was not as fast today as I was in the previous rounds. I have played lot of matches this year, but it was also mentally tough. Now I can relax.


I would say this [title] is the [most] special one. I did not have much time to adjust after the Australian Open. it was not easy to meet people's expectations. I am proud about what I've done".


Berrer: “I was sure that it would be a very, very tough match. But I felt I had chances because with the way I play I can hurt players and I did today, but at the end he showed that he is a Top 10 player. There’s a difference in playing a guy like him than playing a guy outside the Top 20.

If I can work on this level then I can get to a high ranking. Now, I hope I’m in a good way but you have to be lucky to stay healthy and everything, but so far, so good. If I can go on playing like this then I think I can get in the area of the top players and that will be really a success for me.”
