Special K Staying Positive

It’s clearly that season again when all the players update their blogs …

Kei Nishikori has checked in via his blog on his official website with some news from Florida, where he’s rehabbing the arm injury he suffered at the Australian Open.

The news doesn’t sound particularly positive and there’s no news as to when he’ll be back. Sounds like it’s a tough time for him:

Because it’s been a considerable amount of time since I haven’t played tennis at all, it feels pretty strange to me.
 
I feel a bit uneasy that I won’t be able to play like I used to before, because I have never experienced not holding a racket for such a long time.
 
Sometimes I think it’s OK to take a rest for this long period, and sometimes I don’t. Every day I change my mind.
 
I actually appreciate training these days.  It is still hard for me, but not such a burden anymore.
 
I’m learning just how important training is for me.
 
I wasn’t really a big fan of training until recently, lol.
 
But now I can encourage myself to do it by thinking positively on every level.

Check the “lol” … consider yourself pwned, JJ.

Anyway, here’s hoping Special K gets well soon and Project 45 gets back on track.
