CAMELOT FANTASIES

I had held out a small hope for an upset win.


I am not encouraged going forward.


Regardless of what he or his camp says, this is not good for his confidence.


And the real tragedy is that it all started nearly 3 years ago.
His dominance of the surface started to slip 3 years ago.

I will be optimistic for the two of us. I think this match will go a long way towards re-building his confidence. It would be one thing if he played his best, then it would be disappointing, but he didn't, so that gives him a lot of room to improve, while Novak was close to his best level.

It'll be fine.
