US Open 2024 - Grigor Dimitrov, forced to retire in the quarter-finals : "I have to keep my head up"

[Music] yeah I think it's I think it's a culation from from everything clearly my rehab process is a little bit slower than than than before I mean I felt couple of things be in Prior the match so yeah I mean I think there's really no point to talk about the uh about that it's it's it's the game it's just the game and I need to keep my head up um as I said I just need to reassess a little bit of certain things that I can change can maybe do a little bit better um also physically to the way that I'm I've been preparing but again given all the circumstances from Montreal up until now if um I mean I wasn't really sure I I'll be even able to do like as what was I wanted to do and again that's what I'm saying I take this quarterfinal any anytime um but again uh I don't want to discredit the the match that also Francis played I mean he also pushed me a lot to to to try to to to work extra so I mean that definitely he deserves the credit and um yeah we're um moving forward [Music]
