I'm not playing my 100 percent, perhaps because I'm a bit rusty at the start of the season.

It was very hot and humid out there and I started badly, my legs were a bit weak when we finished the first set.

[Guillermo Canas is in New York with girlfriend/player Maria Emilia Salerni , however the US Open will not let him on the grounds:] It's very ugly. He is no criminal, ... This is beyond of what it should be. I didn't even know that rule existed. It's insane. Allowing him to see his girlfriend's matches wouldn't hurt anyone.

The moment an athlete doesn't train, things start to get a bit rusty.

It's not great, ... Once you get out there and start playing, that's just the way it is. With my shins and everything else I've been through that is so painful, I've done this before, so it's not really that frightening.

We're not playing 100-percent yet. We have work to do.
