I am so happy for you!
This year I have had health set backs and could not come to see you play finally in person. Now I realize that you would not have been at the ones I could go to.
Now I am looking forward to watching you at the Olympics on tv. I wish you continued good luck in your recovery. I am planning on Indian Wells or Miami Open for 2017. Always your biggest fan! 😉
Rafa is just so relateable and likeable whether he’s on the court or off the court.
