CAMELOT FANTASIES

Hey guys, I have notposted in a while

Yeah, times are tough for Rafa and his fans. But I am staying optimistic. Well, cautiously optimistic. Today he played passively, but in all fairness Fognini hit great, took the ball on the rise and attacked while not making too many UEs.

Rafa, on the other hand... Where do I even begin!

1. Serving at a pathetic level. Maybe hiring a coach would help?
2. Returning from waaaay back. Come on, this is not Sampras serving, this is freaking Fognini!
3. Hitting "scared" Yeah, come on, one point he is being aggresive with his FH, hitting inside-out, next point pushes a sjort ball in the middle which is crushed by Fognini. Very inconsistent. I mean, come, just go all out, make 60 UEs but find your shots.
4. Tha backhand. OMG, what happened to his backhand??? It used to be so solid and reliable. Now he is running around it leaving the whole court open! Rafa, you are not 25 anymore, you can't chase every ball down!
5. His fitness level. He looked tired to me in the second set. How is he going to play 3 out of 5?

So, unless he gets seriously to work (backhand/returns/serve mostly) in the next week and a half, nothing goog will come out of those 2 Masters and Roland Garros.

Ok, on a lighter note, my Spurs played an awesome game yesterday defeating the Clippers in overtime. Timmy Duncan is 39 years old and he played 42 minutes scoring 28 with 11 rebounds and 4 assists. The guy us in great shape. Maybe Rafa should look up to him for inspiration!

You guys take care, I will see you around
