Juan Carlos Ferrero quotes
"Not at all. I was (here) before, so it's not the first time. I knew before the tournament that I was playing very well on grass because I (had) a great week (at) Queen's (a Wimbledon tune-up event),"
"So I came here, you know, after a week (of) practice and at home, doing not a lot physically and ready to be here."
