So it's now official.
Rafa is out of the Miami Masters and here's a link to the player list via @TAlternative
It's not a wholly surprisable omission considering that he's reached the final here at Indian Wells, and it's obviously a hardcourt tournament he thinks he can do without.
I think it's a very sensible decision. Rafa's got some invaluable work outs here in Indian Wells where I'm sure he's learnt a lot about himself, his knee and has had much improved opposition. But now its time to rest ... until he heads off on to the clay.
VAMOS!!!
Oh, I'm so glad to see that. He doesn't need to stress that knee at this point. He's added points in IW that will make up for what he loses from skipping Miami so better he goes home and gets ready for clay season.
ReplyDeleteWhat is A-Rod's name doing on the list (albeit crossed out) #confused
ReplyDeleteAs for Rafa, good move now that he's won IW.
