Another good point, HIMS.
As for the 5-sets. I think it all depends on the opponent. The only players I'd be concerned about his losing the first set to would be the top 3. He has held steady at 4 for a reason, and even flirted with 2nd when Rafa was out. He has to play his best against them, but can play into the match with the others, it all depends on his state of mind.
