Alex has got the second set 7-6(5)

All these huge long matches, just makes me worry about his arm (but I'm a worrier . . . )

Alex told me he was fully fit and the arm was not an issue.

Really pleased to hear this.

(But I can't help thinking 2 stress fractures in the same place, only 6 months apart, is worrisome - but I'm no doctor and know diddly-squat smile )
