rafa says his back is flaring up again.
very bad news. he was hitting 81 MPH serves today. his average speed on the serve was 103 MPH.
he should have never gone to indian wells and Miami. that is what kept the back from getting better.
he has to get off those hard courts when the injury issues wont go away. that is when you back off the hard courts a little bit.
there was time enough to get on the hard courts after Wimbledon.

Andy has made it a lot harder for himself than it needed to be.
hopefully he can finish him quickly tomorrow.
Yes! That was tough but Andy kept very strong at the end and such a relief this is not the end of his RG journey.
que pasa emma, anikh, and company.
and gets it done. I am happy for him.
milos is on a tear. how far can he go?
Hi Clay. Yes happy Andy finally got there. Hope he is fully fit for tomorrow. Well Milos has Nole next so one thing is for you sure, if Milos does win it would be career defining.
what up anikh.
milos is starting to believe in his abilities. I think he is getting the mental part right too.
it should be a good battle.
I am disappointed in Tsonga today. he just came to pick up his check.
he never came to compete and fight.
Hope Jo gets some direction in his game because tons of talent but not using it in right way at the moment. Milos needs to show he can sustain hgh level of tennis for extended period against a player of Nole caliber. Hope Andy serves well Monday.
one good thing about playing today for Andy is that he should be relatively sharp tomorrow.
I was taking a look at the Federer vs Gulbis match. its a game of inches. that 2nd set breaker got away from Federer. the match might have had a different ending.
at any rate now the berdych vs gulbis battle is on. I think I have to favor gulbis in light of how he played today.
its a tough call. berdych may have his chances too. just look at the way he handled big john isner.
que pasa emma, anikh, and company.
I am watching the andy muray match right now.
verdasco and andy look like identical twins. they are wearing identical outfits.
