Justine Henin assessed Arthur Fils' defeat against Jiri Lehecka in the Miami semifinals, pointing to physical and emotional fatigue as the main reason. "Physically, he was far from his best shape. He couldn't recover physically or mentally," she explained. Fils had reached the semifinals after saving four match points against Tommy Paul in the third-set tie-break after almost 3 hours of play. The Belgian also emphasized the Frenchman's temperament: "He has a fiery temperament. It's an asset, but sometimes it also consumes a lot of energy."
