US OpenUS Open order of play, day 5 — when are Williams, Medvedev, and Murray playing?21 HOURS AGO «You learn from the past a little bit,» Berrettini said in his on-court interview. «I wasn't aggressive enough on the break points but that's tennis. Murray played a really good set to not get broken but I was feeling better.

I had more chances. I thought the same thing in the fourth set. I had my chance and I took them.

»What I tell myself all the time is it is normal to get tight. That's what I told myself when I played Gael [Monfils] a few years ago. I double faulted on match point.

It's normal. We hear about this. That's life.

I told myself next time I will try to be more brave and that's what I tried to do in the fourth set."
