I’m trying not to think about that when I’m in the match. I’m just trying that I’m able to beat him. I know my weapons. I know that I’m able to play good tennis against him, I’m able to beat him. That’s all I’m thinking when I’m facing him. I think every player or the best players thinks when they are facing Novak, just playing and believing in their selves.”
