great post. I agree.
also the French have been pretty brutal to Rafa over the years. now he will own the French forever and ever.
his statues will be all over paris one day as they will use that ploy to lure even more tourists to france.
one day Rafa will have 11 RG crowns. French will surely learn their lesson by then if they have not already.
French davis cup coaches have trashed rafa for years saying things like he is too muscular for tennis and stuff. they said he gives tennis a bad name.
