(Comments from right after Andy Murray's match, so they didn't know about the injury at that point.)
"Since 2019, with the hip issue, he will tell you he hasn't been the same. But the guts of him have been the same. Even if he used to turn around these matches, and lately he hasn't been able to - the drama's still there, the fight is still there. In a weird way, I think this kind of compromised version of Murray almost adds to his legacy, the way he's grinded out the last four, five years. I certainly respect it, I don't know that I could've done it. I don't know if a lot of us could've done it, so props to him if it is the last time we see him in Miami. Hell of a run, pal.”
Waking up to Carlitos' loss has made my head go and think stupid things. Like... maybe it wasn't a good idea to go see basketball in the middle of a tournament, or have so many outings (forgive me if I'm wrong, my life's a bit hectic atm but I'm pretty sure I've seen this things through his social media, sorry if I'm wrong!). But you know what? He should. He's 20 and he has just won his 5th masters and I think people in general (me included) sometimes forget that this guy really needs to just *be 20* sometimes. Even if it may cost his focus a bit. It is fine. It's also part of his personality probably, and he's still learning how to balance it all which is also 100% fine, especiallly when he's doing it under the scrunity of millions and so many people ready to point the finger in a nasty way.
Looking at it from a distance, he's doing a pretty damn good job.
He's probably frustrated as hell atm for losing the "double sunshine" opportunity, but I'm also pretty sure he'll be back in a good headspace for the clay season. It looks like he was in a good mood for the press conference (at least the little bits I saw) unlike previous press conferences after losses so that's something. Also a very sweet and smiley net hug, so kudos for him.
