And just like that Rafa is out of Monte Carlo. Well, he's had it coming for a long time against Ferrer, especially in the best 2 out of 3 format and he finally lost. 44 unforced errors in 2 sets - I don't remember Rafa ever erring that much. In addition, Ferrer played pretty solid which made it pretty tough.
Rafa needs to hit the practice courts ASAP, things are not improving.
he has been
**** around mate.
how often does he lose to a 33 year old midget with no weapons at monte carlo? here is the answer: in the last 10 never but today because he does not work hard enough. you can just see how much fitness and how much muscle tone is gone.
general backspin also spelled that out recently. he looked slow and unfit in Miami. well he looked even worse in indian well.
and this is the same rafa that dominated the tour last year.
its clear that his fitness and his game has taken a hit. his lazy 2 hour training sessions where he just tries to hit mostly forehands was going to catch up sooner or later.
nole would demolished him in the final at this rate.
way too many diversions. what was the need for that stupid poker tournament. he should have gone out worked hard on his ground game for 4 hours instead.
he did the same damn thing in indian wells.
