Rafa has been snakebit by injuries his entire career, which makes his on-court accomplishments even more amazing. Add to that the fact that one or more all-time great players in the prime of their careers – Federer & Djokovic – have been standing in his way from the get-go. Rafa never experienced the walk in the park ‘Weak Era’ that Federer enjoyed from 2003-2007, when Federer was in his prime, while no other great players were in their prime as well. For Rafa, it’s been very tough sledding every inch of the way. For Federer, not so much. Hopefully, Rafa’s luck will take a sharp turn for the better in 2015 and beyond. VAMOS!!!
It’s wonderful seeing Rafa’s magnificent shot, but I do wish he’d stop competing and have surgery so that he won’t be risking a more severe condition. POR FAVOR, RAFA, debes operarte canto mas antes!!!!!!
Por supuesto que no estoy contenta que Rafa haya perdido, pero aliviada. TIENE que operarse YA. No puede estar jugando al tenis con appendicitis. Puede tener rotura de appendicitis, es peligrosisimo y ahi si que va a estar meses para recuperarse. POR FAVOR que se vaya a Espana a operar cuanto antes!!
I like the shot and the positive approach taken here, but boy, a season of hell it is. Thank God for the RG victory in hindsight even more, cause it’s sheer horror before and after that.
