Q. When you were off the circuit, who were the one or two people who really stepped up and helped you the most? How did they help you? Secondly, if you would just talk about playing in such a small country like Croatia, in the shadow of Serbia. Talk about that.

MARIN CILIC: Yeah, my team was around me. We knew that nothing happened and that I'm going to be stronger when I come back, so that was, you know, great for the people around myself like a small group. We worked a lot. I think we still had good times even though it was tough times. For the other part, I mean, coming from a small country, it's also another positive thing. I feel we are very emotional from Croatia and maybe from all this part of Europe where we love to, you know, compete. I feel that a lot of players are coming through that are, you know, having very high ups and downs with winning and losing. I feel that makes us all stronger. I mean, comparing to Serbia, I mean, they had huge success with Novak and with the girls and with the rest of the guys. But, you know, with Croatia it was huge success that we already have for last 20 years.
