Time to reflect about the 2012 and see ahead to the next year.
Hewitt had a couple of thoughts about Tomic and about his own career.
About Tomic
According to Hewitt “He’s got to get back out there and do the hard yards and work on small areas of his game to become a better player,” Hewitt said. “But it doesn’t fully surprise me that he didn’t jump into the Top 10 this year, because sometimes that second year is tougher than your first year.’’
“He’s just got to train harder,” Hewitt added.
About retiring
“I would seriously doubt it. I’d say I’d be back again,” Hewitt said when he was asked if the 2013 Australian Open would be his last he will play. “Well, I’m playing all next year, and I can’t see me stopping at the Paris Indoors when there’s the Australian Open a month later. Unless, obviously, a major injury … But right at the moment, this won’t be my last.’’
Good to see that another interesting 30s+ will still be on tour… and waiting for Tomic to blossom
