I bet if you were to ask him, he'd like to have played even if his wrist still isn't 100%. that's a huge disruption in the normal rhythm of a slam, he's probably going to re-accumulate opening match rust. if his next opponent comes in all tuned up already and Djoker still has to find his timing, he could find himself having to waste energy digging out of an early hole.
crystal ball still tells me this is Andy's to lose. there still isn't enough buzz about how amazingly consistent he's been all year.
