Ferrero: “I lost against him the last two times that I had met him. He’s a very good player and all the matches are very close against him. I think today we played a very good match, we showed very good tennis so I’m pretty happy with the win and hopefully I can keep going in the next round.”
On Nadal next:
“He’s playing very well and he has the confidence from winning tournaments on hard like in Montreal. It will be first time I play him on hard so it will be different for both of us. I’ll try and do my best and play better than I have against him in the past when I thought I had good chances to beat him.”
