Ishikawa: I think the reason we won was because we were able to switch between sets.
-There was a moment towards the end of the fifth set when you hit consecutive service aces to seal the victory. What was your mindset as you served at that time?
Ishikawa: I had been blocked at a point where I should have made the shot before that, so I felt I absolutely had to make it here and there. That was the feeling I went in with.
