Tennis - Wimbledon : Murray : " Honoured ".

On Thursday , Queen Elizabeth II in person at Wimbledon . Coincidence or not , Andy Murray will be there too to play his second round match against Jarkko Nieminen at Finn . No pressure ? With honor , "replied the last representative of Great Britain in the men's table . Again .

ANDY MURRAY you started against Jan Hajek winning in three sets . Is this the start that you wanted ?
A.M. : This is a good start . Okay, the first set was difficult . I discovered a player ... He has started better than me , but once I 'm back in the game, I felt more at ease . But it took the part was well underway .

This fortnight is fun for you? Or anything that ?
A.M. : Very good ! These are the two best weeks of the year, no doubt about it . Between the atmosphere on court and being at home ... It makes a huge difference . It's nice to relax a bit on the way home , spend time with his family and friends . For me anyway , it's much easier.

You said a few days ago that Wimbledon put a strain on the nerves ...
A.M. : Yes .... Being nervous is one of the best things that can happen to an athlete. It shows that you 're in your game , you 're ready to play . If I have zero pressure, then I can start to worry ... It is when I have this adrenaline when I 'm a little anxious that I play my best tennis .

The adrenaline will she amplified Thursday ? For Queen Elizabeth II is announced ...
A.M. : Yes , I heard that . I do not know if she will attend more to my game. But this is obviously a great honor. That never happened , so it would add a little pressure necessarily . But it would be great . It does not come so often to watch tennis. It's great to have the chance to play before her .

Once again, you're the last member of the United in contention . A year ago , you said it was unacceptable to see so many British defeats . What do you say then that this year is worse ?
AM: Well, this is not great , I know. It is true that I want to see more British win games . All those working to see shine should not be happy . Few girls have a chance to win. Objectively, there is only me and Jamie Baker in the men .

But objectively , from the 2nd round, you are the sole British representative in the two main tables . There was no bad but results ... Do not you worry that the relief is not achieved?
A.M. : I do not know , to be honest. If you look at the world rankings and results of juniors who are anything but British, is it any wonder ? In fact, I care little about that . This is not really my problem. I have the pressure to succeed in winning major tournaments , this is more my motto. Since my finals at the U.S. Open and do in Melbourne this season , the attention is on me. I need first to focus on myself and my game

Your objective remains the same in London ?
AM: I 'm not going to be very original , but I want to try to win the tournament . It is my goal. And I think that's the best way to do that . But you need to stay focused on each of your games . There is no point looking further into the table. It does not help ! I am very focused on my first lap. If I play well , I have a chance to go far. But play well and win, it 's essential .

Do you now be a better player than last year ?
AM : In recent months, I have not been particularly good ... I think the progress I have made have seen in Melbourne. You do not progress in two weeks , it takes time to implement these changes into your game today , I think is actually a better player than last year at this time . Physically I am stronger I serve better, I get to be more constant when I hit hard and I 'm better when I go to the net .
