CAMELOT FANTASIES

Rafa's reckless disregard of the single most clay season of his career is going to cost him today.


I thought he had enough game still to trouble djokovic but it is looking like I am going be wrong.


Djokovic showed with far better preparation and far greater focus and discipline.


Rafa' only chance was to snatch 1 of the first 2 sets.


Now it gets a lot harder.

He can't win them all and it's selfish of us as fans to not be grateful for all he's done. Rafa has been doing what he's done for ten years. A body can only take so much. This was his lowest form ever in his career. It would have taken a miracle to get up to speed. He could've made better choices, but I think he's tired. Everyone deserves to rest.


I don't think it's fair that he should be expected to win 14 slams in a ten year period alongside Federer, and then continue to win for the next five years. Rafa has nine RG championships, that can't be taken away.

This is one tournament. It's not life or death. There are more important things in the world; namely our health.

Nadal will be fine.
