  1. Actually, thhere are as a lot of as 2,000 oil glands per square inch in the middle
    part of your face. It has been reported to assist people to overcome some minor ailments.
    I did not do this but next time I plan to
    try this to see if it will cut down the removall
    time.

  2. Rafa is a great player. He showed how to play through pain and never quit. Proud of you. Will watch you always. Good luck with recovery.

  3. Rafa, not only me but my whole family members are sad with your defeat . where from this pain came all of sudden? Really your pain is ours pain. But Wawrinka a very rude man , his behaviour with the umpire was not good & lacked sportsmanship. May be this being the IST & LAST grand slam for Wawrinka. Rafa KEEP GOING .

  4. Watched the entire match, sad to see that he couldn’t play his best during the final due to his injury. No matter what, he is still no. 1.

  5. I am devastated by this loss. I am fine with him losing a match, but I don’t want him to lose because of an injury. He has suffered enough injuries during his career…. I hope he will make a speedy recovery and do well in the remaining 3 majors.

  7. You are a champion Rafa. My son Nick watches you play always and you are his hero. Thank you. You will get your 14th slam and more.

  8. Once was called one dimensional player, Rafa shut them off! Once was called, he is only good on clay, Rafa shut them off! Once was called his injured and done, Rafa came back not just once but more than 3 times. is a great role model, a true champion, gladiator and a living legend. i can not ask for more….. he works so hard and still play with great passion. to top it all, he is really concern about the future of tennis and tennis players! we should be thankful we have a player like him in this era! men tennis is so boring without him. Don’t hate him because his Spaniard! Don’t hate him because his losing his hair! Don’t hate him because he has OCD! Don’t hate him because he has a better H2H against the top 4. Rafa rocks!!! =)
