He likes to intimidate me on the court with finishing the swing here," the 20-time Grand Slam winner said after this 6-2, 4-6, 6-1, 6-2 win over Dutchman Tim van Rijthoven in a third round match on Sunday. "He knows I don't like that particularly. I'm trying to teach him to finish the hand here, the swing, over the shoulder. He does that, but he does this as well. "Whenever he does that he always laughs because he knows. We have this kind of funny moments on the court."
