Great to see Rafa having some fun before the tournament starts, love his smile❤️
Yes he looks very relaxed. Thursday he and Mery worked out at the gym together then went for dinner at Milos that night. He was beaming with her by his side from the video on tmz. Hope she can stay for the entire tournament. She’s his best supporter.
Thanks for the details RR……I think she will. Yes, she is and they are such a lovely couple😍
I like badminton, and I like seeing them play it!
Really good company!!! Habe fun ,Rafa.!!!??
All the best for the US-Open. We are all with you <3

Love seeing Rafa so animated. Says he’s having a lot of fun.
GO RAFA
