L. SONEGO/G. Monfils
6-4, 5-7, 6-4
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. What did you feel coming back to Rome? You had a difficult year, not wins, and today you had to play an Italian. Something happened in the third set that I presume you didn't like too much with the umpire. Can you explain exactly what happened?
GAEL MONFILS: Yeah, nothing serious. I was happy to come back in Rome. I play a very good player. He was better than me today.
Some stuff happen on every matches. I think just Lorenzo was better than me today.
Q. And the umpire, the cramps, whatever it was? I saw you were complaining at the end of the match.
GAEL MONFILS: Me, I didn't complain at all.
Q. You were not talking to the umpire, sorry.
GAEL MONFILS: No, no. I ask him what he was asking. I was ask the umpire what was it for. He told me for the legs. That's it. You can watch again if I was complaining or not. But I didn't say anything.
