About Post Author
I saw that Raonic and Felix were listed as withdrawn due to R having an ankle injury.
Do you know if this ankle affected his loss in singles, or is it one of those ‘maintenance’ things – keeping healthy for Miami?
It was a reason to put on the sheet for a withdrawal. I mean, you have to put something.
I don’t overthink those unless there is some visible issue or a mid-match retirement or the trainer comes out.
