La Furia de Pan ...

Over on VamosBrigade, "Lillian" posted this utterly amazing video that I'd never seen before of a youthful Rafa on his way to his first French Open victory back in 2005.

The semi-final that year was the first time I'd ever seen him - and I stayed tuned because he was twonking Smugly - and I do remember thinking, "What the hell is this??"

Rafa may have lost some of his early antics and celebrations, as players do mature and move on ... but it's nice to have the memory back every now on then. That's what made him R.A.F.A.

Hope you enjoy it.
