If I don't play that game, and he doesn't give me a couple of free ones, it could have gone to a tiebreaker at the end, ... So just a couple of big points here and there in these kind of big matches ... I expect the same today. I expect the same in just about every match I play to be based on a few points. Now I feel like those are going my way.
More Quotes from James Blake:
His serve is a joke. Sometimes it doesn't matter how you return. He can ace you out of a game. If he's hitting his spots, serving at 140 mph from that angle, there's not much you can do except say 'good serve' and move on and not get frustrated. I have to focus on holding serve like I did today.James Blake
He has a good serve. It will be tough to break him, especially in these conditions. Hopefully I can have more control over the match than he does and play as a good as I did today.

I think it has been blown out of proportion that the grass was meant to make them uncomfortable. It was all about our being comfortable. It's the surface Andy is most comfortable on and I think he's the second best grass court player in the world.

I think this is the first time I've been picked. It should be fun, and hopefully I'll start us off on a good note.

Fernando is always dangerous no matter what, and he started playing like the Fernando I've come to know, the one who can hurt you in an instant. He wasn't pushing like he was in the first couple of sets. He was going after his shots and they were going in.

I've got to start talking to somebody about getting some better draws, ... I always see it as an opportunity. I expect really high-level tennis on Saturday. I couldn't quite break through those times, but maybe this time will be different.
