Nadal's knees and will it affect him at Wimbledon?

Question

Yesterday during his match they mentioned briefly that Nadal's knees were suffering a bit. Tendonitis maybe? I can't recall for sure at the moment. Since they are wrapped, I would say that they must be bothering him. Do you think they will affect his game as he progresses, or do you think it is more of a precaution that they are wrapped?

Answer 1

it wont affect him.

Answer 2

Nadal seems to suffer a lot from tendinitis.  His type of play is very aggressive and because of that the often sudden stops and starts have taken it's told but I do believe he is OK.  He wears the wraps just for protection not because he is currently suffering.

Answer 3

He will be fine . Hes gonna win it .=]

Answer 4

I think he'll be fine, he's a tough cookie.

Answer 5

I don't think so. He seems to be fine and playing with great confidence. I haven't seen him complain about them on and off the court. It's definently just a precaution that they are wrapped.

Answer 6

his knees are wrapped for like half of a year now so its prob just for safety...he plays great with or without things on his knees..vamos rafa
