مصاحبه ی رافا، فدرر و بنتو پس از بازی:
"I played great tennis in that moment [from 5-6, 0/40], the only moment," said Nadal, smiling. "For the rest of the match, I am very lucky to be in third round. I didn't play well. I was practising really well in Mallorca, but when I arrived here, it's tough to [get] good rhythm. I have another chance to improve tomorrow. I hope [I] don't play worse. I think the win today is a very important win, and I am going to have another chance tomorrow to improve."

. "It's magic. It's fabulous. Everything you can imagine. All those words," said Benneteau. "This memory will stay forever in me and in my career with all the emotions I felt. And hearing the crowd when they are all behind you, the noise is enormous. I didn't believe it was possible to experience something like that...
"I don't remember any match in my career where I really used my mental resources and physical resources as much as in this match to stay focused, to stay in the present moment, to be aggressive. I needed to go and get that match. I shouldn't be happy with just waiting. I needed to be very precise and to be aggressive, and that is what made the difference."

"I can definitely play much better, but I can also play much worse," said Federer. "It wasn't a bad performance. I think Julien, he went out and got the victory. You know, I definitely had chances. I missed them. Seems to happen a bit to me now, you know, looking back at the Basel final or the
US Open final. I just have to make sure I don't let chances go by like this all the time."
