"But I just feel I've worked very, very hard, you know, on
the practice court and mentally just to keep doing the right
things. You know, certainly you're not going to get carried
away with one win, but it is a start."

"To be playing someone like him, sort of opposite ends of
the confidence spectrum. He's coming off a tournament win;
I haven't had a single win. You know, it wasn't going to be
easy."

Hewitt outdid that, easily:

"Backhand up the line, on the line, I guess. I'm not sure. You know, I
went out there, I went for my shots on match point, and it paid off.
Yeah, you sort of live and die on the edge, I guess. I practiced that
shot, you know, it came off. A couple more inches wide or long, I
could have been in a bit of trouble. You know, some days you have it,
I guess, some days you don't. I felt like nothing was going right
today at all until that time where it sort of all turned around."

Three "you knows", three "I guesses", one "yeah", 2 "sort ofs", and
some brilliant cliché work, and possibly the last sentence is
something even Yogi Berra would be proud of.

Surprised to see only 1 Yeah. In the Alasdair McGowan Show(Brit Comedian
Impressionist) at Christmas, Tiny Tim Henman's only words were "blah blah blah
YEAH and....YEAH..and...YEAH you know..."
