But it's a fewSundays away before we get to that point. The Woodies are our idols. Tobe considered in the same league with those guys is an honor itself. Iimagine if we stay healthy, we might touch that mark. But if we do wedefinitely want to honour those guys for all they've done for us. Todd,when he retired, he's given us advice. They've been extremely nice tous when we were youngsters. “It was a tough break [losing thesecond set]. Maybe in another final, a smaller tournament, that couldhave broken us. But when you play two weeks here and it's a Grand Slamfinal, you don't let anything get you down. I thought we stayedextremely positive. We put it all behind us. I thought actually ourenergy went up in the third. We kind of had out of body experiences inthe third, kind of just got across the finish line somehow. It wasgreat.” Mike Bryan: “It felt today like therewas a little bit less pressure. I thought maybe they were thefavourites. Even though we were seeded No. 1, they had beaten us. Wewent in there a little looser. I think we felt the pressure in the past. “It'sa great city. We feel comfortable here. I mean, I think Andre [Agassi]called it the happy slam. Seems we're in a good mood coming down here,fresh from an off season. We like to get a jump to the year." | ||||||||||||||
