    Jiri Lehecka is in the same mold as Rafa. He gives 200 % for every shot, the difference being Rafa has the ability to cut short points with his ability and variety. But Lehecka is pushing his body too much every single point, I'm not surprised he ended up injured.

      Its possible he is havng strong spasms in the nerves along his back, because he was moving before he dropped then he was walking ok after. Either as said above carrying two bags ans smashing your raquet is different than playing top level tennis where you have to torque your upper body and use your legs at the same time

    From ai:
    **2017 Season**: The 2017 tennis season was notable for the number of top players who ended their seasons early due to injuries. Novak Djokovic (elbow), Andy Murray (hip), Stan Wawrinka (knee), and Kei Nishikori (wrist) were among those who had to take extended breaks from the tour to recover. This significant absence of multiple top players was quite unusual and had a noticeable impact on the tournaments for the remainder of the year.

    With the level of tennis today it’s no wonder the attrition rate has gone up markedly. Not only are players more agile but significantly more powerful.
