00:03Hello everyone, Yannick here
00:04I want to send the warmest greetings to the Chinese fans
00:08I'm very sorry to announce that I won't be able to play in Beijing this year
00:14My knee is not there where I would like to be
00:17and I'm not ready to compete yet
00:19but I will do everything possible to be there on court as soon as I can
00:25Now what I miss the most is of course the tournament, the fans and the atmosphere
00:29I've had a great, great time in the past winning the title also last year
00:34and I'm very disappointed that I cannot defend it this year
00:38but I'm very happy to come back next year
00:41so I wish everyone a very good tournament
00:43and I'll see you all very soon on court again
00:46Ciao ciao
