I prosle godine je igrao IW/Majami i osvojio oba, pa se nesto ne secam da je ugorzio svoje zdravlje.
A ovo je izjava njegovog kondicionig trenera, najveceg majstora koji postoji i koji je jedan od najzasluznijih zasto on jos uvek igra, a i trenutno oporavlja Stanimala cak je Stan rekao da nema Pierra da bi odustao od tenisa posle onog sto mu se desilo prosle godine:
“The advantage when you play on clay for the joints is there is less shock because there is the slide, and the disadvantage on hard courts is there is that shock,” he said. “But the advantage on hard courts is that the shock is brief. It’s bang and the foot leaves the ground and a player who is as coordinated and a dancer like Federer, he crushes his joints a bit less at that bad moment.“In contrast, the disadvantage with the slide on clay is that in the joints there is a lot of vibration. We don’t see it from the outside, but to control this slide there is instability in the knee, the foot, the ankle. And that in some cases can be bad for the knee or joint in question.”
E sad, izvini sto vise verujem takvom coveku i njegovom misljenju, nego vama koji ste u fazonu: mora da igra, neka crkne na terenu, ali mora da igra, kakvo zdravlje, sta ce mu to
