Question

Does anyone no how Rafa is feeling ? Has his foot healed :( I know he`s playing Hamburg...?

Answer 1

I know it's quite sad for Rafa fans. According to Neil Harman from the Times Online, "A syringe was required to draw blood from the affected area, such a painful experience that Nadal was moved to bite hard on a towel to stop himself from screaming in agony". The blister apparently brought him terrible pain. :( I don't know if its much better yet, though Harman said that Rafa was spotted on a golf course afterwards.

According to a French sports article, Rafa is in Hamburg, but his foot is not fully recovered. He said he'll try his best.

If he withdraws from Hamburg he unfortunately will lose his number 2 ranking if Djokovic does well there.  

But that won't be the end for us Rafa fans, because next year a healthy Rafa will come into the clay season with a vengeance, winning all of the tournaments he didn't/won't win this year and becoming #1! :)
