Not sure how Nadal can agree to antibiotics. Wouldn't a surgery at this point be more beneficial? Wouldn't that give him enough time to recover just in time for AO? Anyway, it's his life, his decision.
I see the time slot for the final is the same as today in Vienna. This means I'll be missing the match again. I typically go to bed very late both on Fridays and Saturdays so early mornings are out of the question for me. Wish they had gone with a couple of hours later slot - 4pm maybe. Oh well.
Just had a look at the Valencia draw - Andy and Ferrer is in the same half and Berdych is on the other half.
he is just putting off the surgery which is a matter of surgical emergency.
don't know why he is doing this since it is so risky to compete with this condition.
for instance, it can lead to sepsis and other complications.
also by waiting until after London, he will be forced to miss the Australian Open.
what the hell is he trying to prove by going to Switzerland? he will win 2 matches at best or may not even win one.
antibiotic treatment had to be heavy so the body is already weakened significantly.
