CAMELOT FANTASIES

rafa had no business going to india for those stupid exos.

he threw away valuable time that he needed to prepare for this slam.
he is not stupid. he knew his game was in shambles.

he knew he had to work on his return.
he knew he had to work on his serve
he knew he had to work on his ground game. it was inconsistent as hell.
and he knew there was much work to be done on the fitness front.


he blew all that off.



today he paid for it.



but as I have said before, I don't think he really cares to win anymore. otherwise he would not be losing like this players he has owned all his life.

he had beaten verdasco 14 times on all surfaces.



in the past he won against them all even when hobbling around with his injuries. now he is healthy but there is no relentless will and no real hunger.


and of course he cant to do a thing without his fitness and his physicality. his game is very heavily dependent on it.
