Jardines de Larry Holmes in Sevilla is where Rafa is heading.

Nadal without PEDs

Bad matchup since he plays so fast as well as being an athletic serve and volley player.

Rafa needs to tweak his game though. All this being defensive won't work since his speed isn't the same. His knees are fine, but he just lost a few steps and hasnt adjusted his game to it. He's no longer a threat on grass and he'll prolly win 2 more slams but he gonna need the PERFECT draw for that to happen

He's gonna have to dig deep. I'm sure he doesn't like being #10 in the world. Then to lose in a major to a qualifier. Just compounding the pressure. He really needs to preserve his aura. Once that goes......

Why can't more brehs play tennis? I don't want to hear that money shyt. I grew up in inner city Bmore and we had red Euro clay courts in my neighborhood plus racquet giveaways. It should be especially attractive to selfish team sport players. You get all the credit win or lose. Female bball players really should get in the sport. The 10 top paid WNBA players combined probably don't make what Masha or Serena make a year, including endorsements.

Same reason why they don't play Football (soccer), its considered a p*ssy sport. I personally dont give a fukk, tennis is more entertaining than the NFL.

Its either the NBA or NFL for brehs.

Now more than ever they should. Parity is coming in the men's game.
They could win.
You have to be good to get Serena endorsement money though, very good.
