Tame in Taipei ...

Hhmmm. It seemed that only around 5,000 people came to watch Rafa's exho with Daveed (who put on a show of 3 sets to muted applause, so it seems).

Quote of the day comes here ...

Other fans, however, said it was the players who made it a dull match.

"They were not playing hard enough," complained Evelyn Huang, 22. "Nadal only grabbed his shorts a few times in the match, which meant he was not serious at all."

First time I've ever heard Rafa's level being judged by the number of times he tweaks his undercrackers! Priceless! :D :D

Let's move on from this non-event, eh? Shortly afterwards, Rafa and Daveed headed off to Japan. Where the real work starts next week ...
