Nice observation. I think it might apply more broadly. I still remember when Agassi's career looked like it might be over in 1997 and he made comeback with challenger in Vegas and I immediately thought that if he's willing to play a challenger, he's got his head back in the right place and so it turned out.

And I think sometimes young stars leap out of challengers a bit too quickly when playing alot and learning to win has its value. I liked what Learner Tien did last year when he reduced his travel and just played itf and challengers in the u.s. giving lots of matches and time to practice.
