I’m back in the UK now and I’m still disappointed about my defeat at the US Open, I know I had a good chance this year.
I’ve had a few days to reflect on the match and I know I didn’t play near the level I’m capable of. Having said that, full credit to Stan who played a great match, he’s a top player, has a solid game and played very well, sometimes you have to give credit to the other player.
By and large, my record in the Slams has been pretty good this year, a Final in Australia and a Wimbledon semi-final. But rest assured, no-one is trying harder than me to go that step further and win a Slam.
I’ve been on the road in America for the past eight weeks, so I’ll have a bit of time off over the next few weeks to recharge my batteries. I’ll try and forget about tennis for a while, in fact I’m planning to take in a bit of live Premier League and Champions League action, catch up with friends and maybe rejig the fantasy football team a little.
I’ll also give some thought to my coaching situation before the next tournament at the end of September in Beijing and make sure I’m in top shape for the remaining stretch of the season, I’m determined to end 2010 on a high.
I’d just like to thank everyone for the support I got out in the United States, don’t worry, I’ll be back stronger than ever next year.
