CAMELOT FANTASIES

Thanks Masterclass. I'm trying to figure out what's going on with Rafa. This is another article, this time from Francisco Roig. I think it's interesting.

Francis Roig: ´Nadal is tense. He has enthusiasm, but sometimes it´s not enough´

Rafa has not been competitively playing, the way he"s been training. He won a set 6-2 against David Ferrer in practice. "I think it"s normal when you are used to playing in a way and you are going through a process trying to learn. We have been doing it since before the last US Open. In fact since Cincinnati, we have been trying to modify his style of play. It"s been years that Rafael has been playing this way. He"s been playing certain shots since a few years. He believes as well and that is the most important thing. The way to win at this moment is changing: he needs to be more aggressive, hit before the ball. He needs to make such a change, needs to make sure that things turn, it won"t be easy. When you practice it"s easier mentally, but when you compete you have fear of falling that temptation of having to do more.

For some reason I couldn't copy the rest of it, but it's an interesting article.
