Dan Evans, on if he had spoken to Willis: “Are you kidding me? Don’t get a word out of him. He’s a celebrity now. Just looks at his phone. Spoke to him yesterday; it was like speaking to a brick wall. Doesn’t speak. Just looks at his phone.”

Tomic, after beating Radu Albot in four sets: “I wasn’t expecting the guy to play as good as he played.”

Viktor Troicki, to chair umpire Damiano Torella following an overrule that went against Troicki: “No! No! No way! Look at it! Come on, please! Look at it–once! What are you doing? What are you doing? Tell me, what are you doing? What are you doing there? What do you want to talk about? You’re the worst ever! Do you know what you did? In one moment, do you know what you did? You saw the ball, and I showed you the ball. It’s out. You didn’t see anything today. Are you aware of that? You made 30 mistakes.”

Isner, on the chances of Sam Querrey beating Djokovic after Querrey won the first set: “I would be a little surprised. I would not be shocked.”

Fergus Murphy, when asked by Lucas Pouille why he didn’t do anything when Del Potro yelled “shut up!” at Pouille loud enough for just about everyone to hear: “I didn’t hear it.”

Del Potro, on how he felt after losing to Pouille: “I got frustrations. I feel sad for my loss. But in the end that means I’m still having the fire on myself, and that’s good.”

Alexander Zverev, on being projected as a possible future world No. 1: “There’s been a million future No. 1’s that never got to No. 1. There’s always going to be a lot of talk. Yeah, there’s not really pressure.”

Kyrgios, on the locker room after Djokovic’s loss: “I think as soon as Novak loses, you look at Andy and you look at Federer’s eyes light up. They think that their chances probably doubled.”

Kyrgios, on being told he behaved well by throwing his water bottles in the trash before leaving the court: “Terrible question.”

Kyrgios, on if he might walk away from tennis: “That’s a diabolical question.”

Kyrgios, on his exchange with Murray at the net: “He said, ‘Sorry.’ I said, ‘It’s okay; just win the tournament, please.’ Then we hugged.”

Murray, on the notes he reads before matches: “My notes have been stolen from one of the tournaments last year, so I’m sure you can find them online if you want.”

Berdych, on the difference between now and when he reached the final six years ago: “I’m six years older.”
