The first day of quarter-final Davis Cup Great Britain – France, London, has left both teams at 1-1 after the victory of Gilles Simon on James Ward in straight sets and that, also in three sets , Andy Murray Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. The reactions of the French, before the double of the second day, Saturday at 14 pm French time
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. “What I missed is to be a little more opportunistic on the key points of the match. Turn 1 set 0 or 1 set anywhere, it changes the face of the game. But then I lost in three sets. In the third, I did not run at all, I’m not here for that. We’re lucky to have a good team in the team, so at any time, if I do a 5 set match in 5 h and the next day I can not walk, someone other will go. So I play hard. But after those first two sets where I had opportunities, I took a bit of a less early in the third. At this level, does not laugh, I run after the score and it gets complicated because it plays more relaxed. With regard to medical break (between the end of the second and early third), it was nothing important. Anything that challenges the rest of the weekend. I fell twice, but I’m OK to continue if I have to. “
Arnaud Clement: ” Somewhere, the balance of the day is quite logical. It is true that there is frustration on the second part, after that of Gilles where he dominated from start to finish. Ultimately, there is not much to say about his game so he was superior to his opponent in fairly similar game systems. But he did very well because he had no room for error. For Jo, there frustration. But I’m happy with the way he played. I think he played the way he needs to play to beat Murray. And he had a great attitude on court, which is also essential to give themselves a chance to win against this kind of player. So he missed something. But speaking of opportunism, attention, one or two details. then I am disappointed because I am convinced that Jo has the opportunity to beat Andy Murray, although Andy Murray always share a favorite against any of our players. But he has the means, he works. Today he is given a chance, but walking is still a little high little. “
