WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID

 

Muller

“I think we should make a suggestion to the ATP that we just start with the tie-break next time! It’s always tough to play Ivo and I’m glad I could beat him. I had many friends and a lot of family coming, so it’s been a great week here.”

 

Karlovic

“It’s been an excellent week. I’m really happy. Gilles had an unbelievable week and it’s nice he could win on Father’s Day!”
