Sensible decision from the Great Man to pull out of the muck in Paris and concentrate on the serious business of the grass court season and the pursuit of that record 8th Championship.

It’s a sign of intent, that the great man wants to continue playing for as long as possible and will be judicious in choosing what tournaments, as in the important ones, he will take part in. Hopefully this means Roger will grace our screens for many years to come.

Great decision from the GOAT. At 35 years of age there is no point in trying to kill yourself playing the slower game on the clay. He is best off getting ready for the Grass and Hard court part of the season.

Cilic has caused the Great Man problems before. Beat him in the US Open semi final in 2014 and took the first two sets off him in last year’s quarter final before succumbing in five.
