'I do not tremble my lil' legs against Djokovic'
1.- Hello Rafa, many congratulations on your 22 birthday and your victory
against Nico. Again Djokovic in semis .... Do not you tremble your lil' legs
a bit? I get the feeling that he wants to beat you ... Much encouragement and
focus on win him, that playing like today you can do it. Kisses. Cris
Hello and thank you very much. No, I don't tremble my lil' legs* far from it.
By the way, I do not have many sideburns* ... It is normal that he want to
win me as I want to win. For this reason we are here. Let us see what
happens.
2.- Hello Rafa. First of all CONGRATULATIONS! I want that you told me where
you usually stay during these tournaments that are longer. In any hotel or at
home? I hope that you answer me kisses. For the fourth.
We're always in hotels that are "official" of the tournament. In the grand
slams is different because we have a per diem and we are going to the hotel
that we want. The only time we are in private homes that we rent is at
Wimbledon. There there is no hotels and we prefer to be there and not go to
London. If not there is much traffic and becomes very long comings and
goings.
3.- Hello Rafa from your beloved island. Having born and raised in France and
even knowing the staunch chauvinism of the French I feel somewhat ashamed of
their behavior to others. Nicolas Almagro and David Ferrer were the latest in
"discover" without, thank god, were decisive in the outcome of their
respective matches, Or perhaps yes? The behaviour "sportingly correct" of the
public seems to me natural and even necessary for the spectacle but How far
that point affects the player the "sportingly uncorrected"? Although you are
the perfect example of temperance and self control must be difficult to
abstract of the excess of tension created and which has nothing to do with
sport. Should be more demanding the organizers of the tournament? A greeting
from Cala D'or.
It is always preferable to have the public in favour. At least in my case. I
have to say that with me wherever I go it use to be like that and I love it.
It is true that there are times that the public wants to win he one that in
theory is the less favorite or to lengthen the time of the match the public
encourages the one is losing. It is logical. I have no complaints or at least
I do not usually express them.
4.- Hello Rafa. In the preseason of 2007, before the Australia Open, it was
talked a lot of the changes that Toni and you were doing in your service. At
that moment, let me tell you, that little change was observed. However, in
this tour of land, especially in Hamburg and here in Paris you're serving
much better. Your percentage in Hamburg was more than 78% of first and
foremost you have increased considerably the speed serves, especially this
first-second that sometimes gives you problems in hard . You always say that
there are many things to improve and keep working, but how far that point
after being trained so hard for so many years can correct one thing learned?
Do you think that the serve is one of your deficiencies in hard? Good luck
and thousand of thanks for everything. A greeting. Reyes.
Yes, there are always things to improve. But I Think that improving shots at
this stage is more complicated. The tennis is not just a question of a one
shot, or two, they are many elements of the play and it try to improve in all
aspects. I have worked service but also in other aspects. It is also a matter
of mind.
5.- Hello Rafa , I'm from Peru and amateur tennis, seeing you to play has
always been a whole inspiration; I wanted to ask what treatment follow you
for tendinitis, I see that every time you use more tapes, Do you think while
you're in tennis this will no be better?
Thank you very much. No. I have no tendinitis. I have these tapes as you say
in the knees for protection, but rather to prevent would be any problems in
the knee.
