Well Rafa might have rushed things when he was practicing. The fact that he hurt his right wrist should give some hope to his fans as you say. Even so, every time Rafa was off for a few weeks or for a few months, he had benefited the most in those times, so that's something to look forward to for his fans too. Isn't it, herc?
In any case, let's see how things go for him in the next few weeks and if he's going to be ready for the USO. Nole did hurt his wrist before RG this year, remember and came back just in time to play RG.
