WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID
Gasquet: "I played against a French player, who is also my friend, so of course it a little bit strange, but for me it's a title and I've had some tough matches this week so I’m very happy to win. The people here are very nice, the crowd was very nice. The night I played against [Grigor] Dimitrov it was late, but the people stayed and cheered for me so it's more reason for me to come back next year and defend my title."
Simon: "I was playing some of the best tennis I ever played yesterday [against Janko Tipsarevic] and today I just couldn't play at all. Thierry [Tulasne] was here to watch, but it was our last week together so I really wanted to win."
Lu: "I feel very happy, there’s no reason to be upset at all. I'm very happy for Danai [Udomchoke] to win on his home ground. I don't know how I can explain how I feel, I'm just very happy and I appreciate playing with my friend. This is another experience we go through as friends and I’m happy."
Udomchoke: "I was at my happiest moment during match point because I’ve always dreamed of holding a Thailand Open trophy in the 10 years I’ve played the tournament. I feel very proud of having done it today."
