Alex de Minaur's quickfire exit from Queen's has left Australia's big Wimbledon hope in danger of heading into the grasscourt grand slam severely undercooked.
The Aussie No.1 took a break after suffering a first week exit on the clay of Roland Garros, admitting the unrelenting schedule of the tennis calendar had left him mentally spent and physically drained.
He skipped the Rosmalen grasscourt warm-up in the Netherlands, which he won last year, to live the life of a "normal human being ... going for coffees, to dinners, visiting parks and nature, playing golf ... instead of obsessing about tennis 24/7."
