“Usually we are sat in the hotel rooms waiting for the next day to play.
“We did some sight-seeing this week. I came back, chilled out and played on the Switch.”

For his opening-round match at Madison Square Garden, he changed his walk-on music to the theme used by WWE wrestling champion Cody Rhodes.
Littler had a dream debut in front of the US crowds as he smashed Canadian Matt Campbell 6-0 in under 10 minutes.
