hey all... just thought i would drop in and give u and update.. our first match in dusseldorf is scheduled for sunday. i am not gonna be able to play in that one but am 100 percent planning on playing the second match.. i just hit for the first time since rome and everything felt fine. the thing with a back spasm is that it can 1 day or 10 days.. doug and my doctor here both wanted me to error on the side of caution and it seems like they made the right call. it drives me nuts when i cant play, and i am so excited i was able to hit some balls today and feel healthy. john and doug are here in nyc with me, and pat mcenroe is gonna train with us tomorrow so i should be ready to go by the time i am supposed to play next week....... hope all is well with u all and thanks for all the well wishes.... take care!!!
