"I woke up with a completely blocked neck and we worked on it all morning. I didn't know if I would play or not," Ljubicic said. "It was probably the most difficult decision I had to make in my career -- to play or not."
Ljubicic said he had to vomit when he left the court during the third set because he felt ill after taking painkillers. He also said he had trouble concentrating during the match.
