Ian Warren I watched this game in La Habana, I arrived to the hotel at 06:30 am, Rafa was losing 2-0 and Daniel almost broke Rafa's service. Rafa start wining when nobody believe in him. Finally he won the match and I was congratulated for the Russians that started to wake up in watched the end of the match.
Well said Craig. We talk about who is the 🐐 and whilst we are creatures of habit in there has to be only one, 🐐 are very sociable creatures so it makes sense that all 3 in Rafa, Fed and Novak are a deemed to be a HERD of 🐐.
Well said. We will miss seeing Rafa compete!
I was fortunate enough to be on RLA when he beat Medvedev in 5 in 2022 after losing the first two sets. Memorable night.
The best player with the best values in history tennis won’t be the same. Such a privilege to have both witnessed Rafa play and meet him!
Very well said Craig Rafa was a warrior on court and the most humble person off court!! He will be missed
Agree 110%. Forever loved and an icon.
