"This is really special. My first Stockholm win is so special. I really stepped up my game, so I’m really happy with my performance.

I’ve really worked on my stuff, and I really stepped up today and showed myself, and the tennis people, that I really belong here." He shared via ATP Tour

He continued:

"I’ve been injured for some time and how I managed today to come back and show myself that I really belong here. It’s a good, positive thing. I just have to keep doing my thing. I played really good today and it helped so much with this crowd, it was amazing."

In the round of 16, Bjorn Borg's son, Leo, will lock horns with Israeli-Canadian talent Denis Shapovalov.
