He was then unable to hold onto a 6-1 lead in the opening set of his fourth-rounder in Miami, going out in three to Robert Bautista Agut.
“I can’t wait to step on court, I’ve been training hard,” he said on a rainy opening day of the Masters 1000. “I had a great last six months of the season, the 31-year-old Serb said.
