Jon's asked when he felt he'd won the green jacket. Jon's said didn't want to get carried away, as he remembered Rafa's bio & his words on WB-2008 F when he allowed himself to think of a win after a great FH at the TB & then lost it & match went to 5 sets.

"Djo seen wearing a new pink shirt"
"Djo credit card gets declined at the Four Seasons Monaco"
"Djo doesn't notice his booger dangling during press conference "
Etc
