00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]

00:03 Yeah, I mean, just basically the whole Schallen trip,

00:07 I was playing quite well.

00:10 Been playing well, actually, for a few months now,

00:12 so it's obviously extremely disappointing.

00:17 Yeah, nothing much I can say.

00:21 Dave.

00:23 It seemed that one or two things started to go on a little bit

00:26 with Daniel towards the end of the match

00:29 when he asked for a replay of a call

00:32 and interrupted the flow of the play.

00:34 Did that sort of stuff start to bother you?

00:37 From what I remember, it was 6-5 in the fourth set,

00:43 and I think I held that game quite easily.

00:45 So no, in that case, no.

00:50 It didn't bother me much.

00:52 I mean, I held quite easily afterwards.

00:53 But yeah, it is what it is for me.

00:59 It's more disappointing that at 5-4 in the tie break,

01:04 I didn't serve it out, and I actually lost both points.

01:06 And actually, the 5-0 point was just purely unlucky,

01:11 to be honest.

01:11 So that is more disappointing to me.

01:15 Anyone else?

01:21 Sam.

01:22 Alexander, where did you feel like the match was

01:25 starting to change?

01:26 I mean, you were quite dominant at one stage in the second set.

01:29 When did you feel it start to switch around?

01:32 At the end of the second set, I started to lose energy.

01:35 I started to not feel so fresh anymore.

01:41 I mean, I am a bit sick.

01:46 I got a bit sick after the Alcaraz match,

01:49 with a bit of fever and stuff like that.

01:51 So that obviously didn't help the recovery,

01:54 and I did play quite a lot.

01:56 So, yeah, just loss of energy a little bit

01:59 in the end of the second set.

02:01 And against him, it's impossible to play when you're not 100 per cent

02:05 physically, because he's literally someone that really

02:08 doesn't give you anything.

02:10 He makes you work for every single point,

02:15 and once you kind of can't really do that anymore,

02:19 it becomes very difficult.

02:20 And obviously, I was very close in the third and fourth set,

02:23 but I wasn't the same player as I was the first two sets anymore.

02:29 I was kind of just hanging on.

02:31 I was not losing my serve, but I felt like in the first two sets,

02:34 I was really on top of his serve a lot.

02:37 But that kind of went away in the third set.

02:40 Has it been more difficult for you to concentrate here,

02:46 considering the news that came out of Germany

02:49 right at the start of the tournament?

02:51 No.

02:53 Because I've said it before, anyone who has a semi-decent IQ level

02:57 understands what's going on, so I hope that most of you guys do.

03:02 So I'm fine with it.

03:04 The only other time you lost from two sets up, of course,

03:12 was in the US Open final,

03:13 so does that make it doubly difficult to lose a match like this?

03:17 Yeah, frustrating, but for me it's more frustrating

03:20 to see that I didn't feel 100 per cent physically.

03:26 That is more frustrating to me.

03:27 It kind of took the chances away.

03:30 I was playing well enough.

03:31 I was playing well enough throughout the whole Australian trip in a way.

03:34 I was playing very, very good tennis the whole Australian trip.

03:41 And I lost it because of a physical state, not because of tennis.

03:48 That is for me disappointing, because that's probably the first time,

03:52 one of the first times in my career that that has happened.

03:56 Yeah, just...

03:59 I've done...

04:02 But the other thing is I can be also proud of myself,

04:05 because I did everything I could.

04:07 I did all the work in the off-season,

04:09 I did all the work here in Australia.

04:10 I was focused, I was concentrated.

04:13 But things happened out of my control in a way.

04:17 You know, and it's not my last chance, hopefully.
