For the first round I actually felt really good, if I maybe would have served a little bit better, I think things would have gone faster.

I think I played well overall, i think the first set was definitely key to the rest of the match because I think it maybe might've taken some energy out of Tomas. Who knows ? If not physical, also mental.

I'm pleased with how I played, david normally gives me a hard time in practice so I was surprised at how well I went.

Alexandr Dolgopolov is a different player, a different level, alexandr Dolgopolov's got the fitness, the power, the speed, tennis IQ, all that. It's going to be a big challenge.

The players I have talked to have been very positive about that idea and I think it would cause them to play a little more than they do right now.

Roll back the years with @mhingis. Really excited to be playing mixed doubles with you 15 years later at the Rio games.

Britain are the favorites, in my opinion, because they have Andy in the team.

Belgium are at home. I really like Goffin, a great player. Good attitude. I feel like he's the kind of guy that can handle pressure.

For me it's an advantage because I guess it gives me a bit of confidence, for him it's an advantage because he gets a second chance, and he's in another final. He's played some great tennis since we've played.

I'm serving very well, playing positive tennis, going for my shots and it seems to work, i'd love it to work just one more time this year.

Now I've got the confidence, I've got the matches and I'm actually still feeling really fresh even after this week, everybody knows it's Roger Federer last chance to do well at a slam or win a slam.

I didn't know he was unseeded. Total shock for me to see I was going to play him, it's really tough to be playing Leonardo Mayer.

The Shanghai match was one of the toughest ones I've ever won in my career, i like the power he has plus the serve, which makes him tough to control from the baseline.

My game is going very well. My volleying has been very good lately and very proactive going forward and I think my serve has been unbelievable lately.

Good, regardless of whether I would have won or not, i was well prepared. I had a good Wimbledon, a good offseason, recovered well and trained really hard. I knew I was going to be ready for the Open.

I tried to really mix it up on Novak Djokovic second serve and I was hoping to serve good enough Roger Federer to keep me out of trouble, novak Djokovic had that one bad game at the beginning of the second set, which made the difference in the match.

Incredibly, the triumph marks the 87th ATP Tour win of Federer's trophy-laden career. Djoko's Cincinnati hex By comparisson, Djokovic will now have to wait until next year to try and overcome his Cincinnati hoodoo. Sunday's result means the World No 1. has lost in the final of the Ohio tournament five times in his career, including twice previously to Federer in 2009 and 2012.

It's the first round of the hard court season for the next six plus months or so, i have things in mind to work on for the hard-court season. Number one, you have to be fit and tough, because you can stop on a dime and move the other direction, which on other surfaces is not so easy to do.

Nick Kyrgios definitely crossed the line by a long shot, we're not used to that kind of talk in tennis. It's normal that the tour comes down hard on Nick Kyrgios and explains to Nick Kyrgios that it's not the way forward.

I am disappointed that I won't be playing in Montreal because it's a tournament and a city that I really enjoy and has incredible fans, my family and I have always received first-class treatment from tournament director, Eugene Lapierre, and his team and I hope to be back in the future.
