Congratulations on your win Rafa. Keep it up. And keep up the positive attitude. And never any self-doubt!!! Always remember your serve – keep working on it so it is always effective. Most of all please remain healthy and the best of luck during tomorrow’s match. God Bless you. Love, Marylynn
Fantastic win in straight sets. Keep rolling, fighting and winning. So satisfying to beat someone who repeatedly displays such poor sportsmanship. A real confidence-builder😉💪
Great stuff! Really hoped you’d bagel him, but straight sets 6-2, 6-2 is good. (You’ll gather I don’t like Rosol.) You seem to be playing better and better.
