  1. I’m sure Rafa will manage well as he always have tough opponents, this will be good practice for him even if he doesn’t win he’s getting the feel back on court good luck Rafa!

  2. The most important aspect is that Rafael gets court time to build up his sharpness, get the feel of the ball in competition and find his range.Today was a good work out against SW and will increase his confidence Vamos Rafaaaaaa
