He just said something to the effect of he would hate to think he may have lost the tournament because of the lack of light. But he also said neither one of them wanted to stop the match and come back tomorrow unless they were tied at 8-8. I mean, I'm sure if the lack of light was so bad in a match this critical, he would've said something and the officials probably would've gone along with it.

And yeah, like Deebot said, they both had to play in it and Rafa said he "couldn't see nothing," but he still managed to win. lol
