our rafa practiced today in Miami.
I don't really care what happens in Miami as long as he escapes from there with no injury.
this is not a smart decision to go there. he is on the verge of losing it all.
he cant afford to lose his RG crown.
I would be on clay already.
ad this is not coming from me. it is coming from uncle tony. he said RG will be difficult this year.
LOL, at the people who say Rafa is Uncle Toni's puppet. Rafa does what he wants to do, even if is sometimes ends up being to his detriment.
Having said that, did you see this? You said Rafa shouldn't go to Miami. I hope he's alright. Lord help his fans. He really does put us through it sometimes, doesn't he? Still, the good outweighs the bad.

Rafael Nadal's quest to win his first Miami Masters title suffered a setback today after he experienced a fall during practice. One eye witness during the practice was Twitter user @cooper_station who described the fall as "nasty" and said that Nadal was on the floor for about ten minutes. He then added that Nadal was able to walk off the court on his own.
Due to the fall Nadal didn't finish his practice session. Following the fall the world number 3 sat down and spoke to a Physio about the incident before he cut the session short. It is currently unknown if any damage was done to Nadal, however El Nuevo Herald photographer Pedro Portal posted a picture of Nadal signing autographs on his way off the court with his left shoe and sock off.
Only time will tell if any damage was caused.
I will say this again. hard courts are just bad news for him now.
end of story. they end his career if he doesn't minimize play and practice on them
also RG hangs in the balance. he was not that good on clay in south America.
why do we need the 600 points so damn bad that it may end up costing us a career.
already it is going to be tough as hell to catch nole if he steals the RG. he will be too far out in front.
we lose RG then we lose everything for now. we lose the king of clay title.
anybody can fall but he fell because he is not that fit anymore. he is tired in Miami. he played both doubles and singles in indian wells.
he struggled for 3 hours against milos. those at the courtside said he was worn out after a set and a 1/2.
he had no business playing doubles. should have kept himself healthy and fresh and focused only on his singles game.
he looks very tired in Miami. almost the look of somebody completely worn out.
he should have gone home and rested for 2 days and then started practice on clay.
