I've gotten through two five-setters, and feel surprisingly good. It's a sprint now around the turn and down the homestretch. I'll be in position to give it a good run.
Right now, I'm not in a position to be out there. I'm way less than 100 percent.
Gil has helped me make decisions that have put me in a position to still be out here letting my game be the most it can be. There's a lot of people who have to sacrifice for me to still be able to do this, and there's a lot of trust that goes into that.

Robby's improved a lot, ... He's gotten a lot smarter with his game. ... I was very impressed with how he's improved since last time I've played him.
Roger played way too good today. I just lost to a guy who is better. He is the best I have ever played against.
Playing a surface like we are here is not easy on the body,
