Ococo diminished?

The Australian remains on retirement in Rome, too short for Roland?

Shoulder problem for O'Connell in Rome, who had to withdraw from Geneva too. The Australian is often hampered by physical problems, obviously the 3 winning sets format is not reassuring for him. On earth this season it's 4 defeats for two victories, his game is working less well and we simply feel that he is not having as much fun. In general he hangs on and fights until a certain point of no return. His record at Roland is catastrophic, with no match won in 4 appearances. We can't even talk about bad draws, he loses to Bedene, Daniel, Paul and Ymer, only one bad draw, the rest was playable. A heavy soil that simply does not suit him. Okay, I've taken down O'Connell now let's talk about Misolic. I'm not going to sell him to you as a monster because frankly there is nothing exceptional about this player, he is just complete. He is good in all areas of the game without excelling anywhere! He fights well, I like his mentality and his attitude, but in the game don't expect to see anything grandiose. He makes his opponents work, pushes them to make mistakes and does not hesitate to take more at times. In short, nothing incredible but the guy already has 3 victories under his belt, he comes out of the qualifiers and takes a playable draw, a real opportunity!
