GOOD LUCK & VAMOS RAFA!
Rafael has me has dado una felicidad muy grande …….
Rafa is so tough mentally, physically and emotionally like no other player! Unbelievable and this is why i love him so much such an inspiration ! I’ll be setting my alarm for 4:30 am in Toronto to cheer my # 1 on ! I just wish I can give you a big hug Rafa ! Best of luck and stay strong !
Best of luck in your match against Dudi Sela! He appears to be a hard-working scrambler
on the court. Hope you are feeling much better for this one. Hopefully it will be cooler
and less humid since you are playing a later match! I look forward to another
awe-inspiring match! Vamos, Rafa!!!
Rafa needs to play Sela the same way he played Youzhny – a steady stream of DEEP shots to Sela’s righty one-handed backhand, until he gets a short return, then pound the ball HARD & DEEP to Sela’s forehand. Keep unforced errors to a minimum by avoiding risky sideline shots, and those into the net. Ignore the naysayers. You can do it Rafa. VAMOS!!!
Good luck Rafa, you hace al the chances to sin the next match, vamos RAFA
Good luck on your 3R match Rafa. Vamos Rafa!!
We’ve learned to suffer with you, but when the game is over we think… How fantastic was it !!!
