Thought the same thing myself, Martens (about Djokovic's reasons for retiring, not about him needing to eat lots of bread
). He retires from games quite a lot, and quite often when he's getting beaten he'll start grimacing and stretching, as if to try to show he's not 100%. Seems the kind of player that's fine all the time he's winning, but if he loses, there always has to be some excuse, he doesn't seem to be able to accept that sometimes he's just been outplayed. All that of course is just my opinion, maybe I'm being harsh on him.
And you're right, the match starts at 3pm (CET), I was confused by
Betfair, which has it down as starting at 2.30 (i.e. 10 minutes ago).
