Champion at Melbourne Park in 2009, Rafael Nadal has lost three other finals since – to Novak Djokovic in 2012, to Stan Wawrinka in 2014 when hindered by a back injury and two years ago to Federer.
Rafa now truly believes he can add an 18th major to his CV in his first event in four months.
Vamos Rafa!

I hope the AO Good Luck gods are with Rafa this year. Rafa surely has my support for his second title at Melbourne.
RAFA ROCKS
I do also, Rafa works so hard for his accomplishments . Rafa Rocks.
I will be cheering you on Rafa,.
Rafa was very cautious with his movements in fast four and was not trying much. It’s so unlike Rafa. Hoping everything is fine with Rafa’s body..
Best of luck Rafa! Vamos💪💪💪
Rafa has a very good chance of winning AO 2019.vamossssssssss you can do it Champ is time to do it 🎾🎾🎾🎾😘😘😘😘👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸
I ‘m waiting you for long time.In brisuban you didn’ t show up.I was depressed.I hope you get to cure and to win again in Australian open tennis tournament.good luck Rafa!
The best of luck to a champion player. Great to see you strong and confident. Good health and much success in 2019.🎾💪👏❤️
It would be awesome if Rafa claimed the title . If he gets over week one I feel that he has every chance . Wishing him every good wish and a bit of luck. Vamos Rafa
He has not looked good in his return from injury and surgery. I am not expecting him to win this years Aussie maybe next year if he is FULLY healthy. I expect Roger or Chokovic to win. If Rafa can prove me wrong boy I will be so damn happy, but he has not looked good. I can see him winning the French again with the adequate time to fully heal from this thigh muscle tear. If not Rafa, hopefully a young gun. But hopefully RAFA, VAMOS!!!
I really hope that Rafa will be healthy to fight for the title. He deserves it so much <3
Rafa has a very good chance of winning AO 2019 and I would be thrilled to death if he does it . Vamos Rafa and please bring us the trophy !
