Loffhagen stepped away from tennis for a time saying that he "wasn’t enjoying it at that time" and "wanted to do something else. I worked in a pub, studied a bit, went to university… and then I played a couple of tournaments and enjoyed it again. I didn’t want to have regrets—so I decided to start again".
