I know…I really don’t understand how and why. Last year he played harder and had an edge…you always hear about how in shape he is in…so I figured this year we should expect the same.
I think it is has to be one or both of two things. #1 Last year he was just “hot” and it wasn’t “normal” play for him. #2 Maybe he has some kind of illness this year where he has yet to be able to perform @ 100%.
