After Laslo Djere defeated Russian Safiullin, he clinched another victory against third-seed Borna Coric. They played a difficult match and fought for every point but the Serbian player managed to win the match at the end.<\/p>\n
“I expected a difficult match and I was proven right. We both had our ups and downs during the match. However, I felt at ease on the tennis court. I used every opportunity I got although it was a tight match. I maintained my focus until the very end,\u201d Laslo Djere said after the victory.<\/p>\n
Djere doesn\u2019t hide that he took advantage of his opponent\u2019s mistakes at decisive moments in the second set and that that fact might have decided the winner.<\/p>\n
“He missed some easy points and I returned to the match. Especially when he had 5:2 in the second set. However, I was aware that he only broke my serve once. When I returned, I knew how to \u201cbreak\u201d him for the second time. I reset both my mind and my focus and didn\u2019t miss opportunities on his serve\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Serbian tennis player said that the support from the stands meant a lot to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cSpectators were great. They certainly helped me. They rooted for me, but they were also very respectful of Borna. They applauded him to show approval of some great shots he made\u201d.<\/p>\n
Djere has admitted that both matches he played so far were difficult matches. When asked whether he felt more confident now after he defeated the player ranked No. 21 in the world, Djere explained:<\/p>\n
“He is a good player, an excellent competitor and hard to beat. It\u2019s not really important to me whether he\u2019s ranked No. 21 or No. 50 in the world\u201d.<\/p>\n
Djere\u2019s next opponent will be the winner of the match between Popyrin and Molcan.<\/p>\n
“I played with both of them in the past. I beat Popyrin twice and I won one and lost one match against Molcan. I find him more difficult as an opponent. It won\u2019t be easy, regardless of the winner. However, I don\u2019t play tomorrow so I\u2019ll use the day to rest and recover and I\u2019ll be 100% ready for the match on Friday\u201d, Djere concluded.<\/p>\n
