Djoković: "I was under pressure – even more than before"

Novak defeated Alejandro Tabillo for the first time in his career (7-6, 6-1).&ldquo;Sagapo,&rdquo; Djokovic said, then continued:&ldquo;I&rsquo;m still learning Greek and would like to greet you all. I feel at home here; it&rsquo;s wonderful to play in Athens. A few months ago, when I came here with my family, we were very excited. We love Greece&mdash;every Serbian loves Greece. Historically, culturally, and religiously, we are deeply connected. It&rsquo;s amazing to experience all of this and to feel the hospitality and kindness Greeks are known for. Because of what I&rsquo;ve achieved in tennis, people are even kinder to me, which is why I received such a warm welcome&mdash;it truly touched my heart.&rdquo;In the quarterfinals, he will face the winner of the match between Nuno Borges and Eliot Spizzirri. What about winning the tournament?&ldquo;Let&rsquo;s wait; we&rsquo;ve just started&hellip; Step by step. I&rsquo;m really thrilled with tonight&rsquo;s match. I had lost to Tabillo twice, this year and last, and I might have been under pressure&mdash;perhaps even more than before. I tried to draw energy from the crowd, and I thank you for that. Sagapo,&rdquo; Djokovic concluded.
