We travel together a lot.

The crowd has been great, ... especially our (semifinal) match since it was on Stadium Court and at night. A lot of people stuck around from the (first night match), and since it was a tight match, the crowd helped us out a lot.

To be honest, I?m not just a doubles player, ... Singles is my first priority. But I got a wild card into the U.S. Open, so I just decided to play doubles (at the Pilot Pen). It?s nice to be here in New Haven with my coach to get ready for the U.S. Open. We?re fortunate to have gotten a wild card from the tournament director.
