“Well, I don’t know. If I’m meant to win every Grand Slam I play or be in the final, it’s just very, very difficult just now. With the guys around us, it’s very challenging and like I say, I have played my best tennis in the slams the last two, three years. I mean, I lost today in straight sets, so that’s disappointing. I would have liked to have gone further but look I mean, I can’t complain. If someone told me before the US Open last year I would have been here as defending champion, having won Wimbledon and, you know, Olympic gold, I would have taken that one hundred per cent. So I’m disappointed, but, you know, the year as a whole has been a good one.”
