He started to put more pressure on me, and I really felt it,” Ivanov continued. “I tried to escape and I tried to make those moments as short as possible, which I am very happy [about] Today, because I was able to do it very briefly. And on 5-all-all I managed to break back and then take my serve. So I am very happy with that. “
