And this one shows the last game, then the on-court interview after the match:
It was great seeing him play again. However, this quote was a bit concerning to me: “I need holiday badly,” he said. “I’m wounded, tired, and exhausted and need some time off right now and see where I go from here. Nothing has been decided for the rest of year, even though there is a plan in place, that plan might change. I need to go back to drawing board to see what’s important.”
Regarding the "wounded" comment, did anyone else notice his serve looked a little bit different? Maybe it was my imagination, but to me when he hit the ball it looked like he was holding his body different, almost trying to protect it. I noticed that before I read his comment. In any event, he has played a lot of tennis this year, added tournaments he doesn't usually play plus the Olympics. I hope he goes and has a couple lovely weeks laying on the beach and doing not much else! And I would imagine it may be unlikely we would see him in Shanghai, but time will tell. Go rest, Roger!!!
