Finally good news. After so many speculations, it seems that we can have our champion back to business for the Davis Cup (14-16th September).
In an phone interview with TVE the mytical Uncle Toni said “After Wimbledon, we decided to rest a few days and then move on to strengthening the quadriceps but that’s was a struggle. Later we managed to strengthen a bit, but at the end of the training sessions that pain continued and the recovery was not sufficient to deal with a competition as tough as the U.S. Open and the rest of the season,”
“Now we’re training normally but it’s not the same as competing for four hours in a tournament,” he commented.
Then talking about their goal of making Rafa fit for playing the Davis Cup Uncle Toni added “There’s a month to go and we hope he’s fine, if not technically then at least physically,”
Good news. Rafa will train and enjoy a bit the wonderful summer in Mallorca, then… time to fight back!
