I think I read somewhere David Ferrer is going to be there. So many of my faves together for 2 days on a beach on an island in the Mediterrean and the tickets are gratis! If I weren't half a world away I'd be there in a heartbeat. Please tell me someone's going, seems like too good of an opportunity to pass up...

moya lost from nadal, but had two setpoints in first set, he lost 2x0
but it was more practising, than a true battle!!! so i read, haven't seen it. But there is a real nadal mania going on in spain, no one was looking to moya. So if you are a true fan, write a card or a letter and send it to valerie. I have her adress and she will take care of it and gives them to moya. He need to know he has still many many fans!!!
