Hi mimi,

I didn't managed to catch the match and was disappointed that he lost the match but thinking back he has improved and managed to reach the quarter final this year which including his wimbledon progress is tremendous!! Rafa's still a work-in-progress player but he has done so well last year so I guess everybody are expecting a lot from him. Whenever Rafa plays, I will have a may-not-win, hope for best attitude cos the ball is round and anything can happen. Most Rafa fans won't agree with me on this but this is my way of thinking..

hi veyonce

you are so right and think so smart

, i know that he cannot win all the time but still feeling a bit sad coz i hate reading those bashing threads on him

Hi mimi,

I know there's a lot of rafa bashing threads in the mtf general messages thread and that's why I seldom visit the mtf general messages thread now... There's no need to get mad at these threads posted by rafa-haters.. Actions speak louder than words so they can bash/lash at Rafa whatever they like cos we know Rafa will prove them wrong!!

Mimi · 09-07-2006, 04:53 AM

yes, lets wish rafa will keep on improving and one day i wish him to win a slam other than the French Open

Lopaka · 09-07-2006, 05:40 AM

It is always sad to see Rafa leaving the court losing. Especially 3 touranments in a row. But after checking the record it is obvious he is improving. I think this loss will be a positive for him and we will see him a winner of a Slam other than the French Open.

Thanks everyone, I hope Rafa will keep his positive attitude and improving his game!

poor little rafa sit helplessly on his chair

, suddenly i remember that i have watched misha? played once, it was against rafa in this year? or last year's Rome Open, he played badly in that match, wow, he improved a lot since then

Thanks for the pics guys! I'm sad that Rafa lost too, but you know what? Look at the stage he managed to reach! I mean, of course he could have reached the semi-finals or the finals, but, if you look at the records, he's never done so well before in the U.S. Open! And, at a time when NOBODY believed that he could play as well on hard surfaces as he does on clay, he even reached the finals of Wimbledon! I think that, through this past year, his game has improved A LOT and it's only a matter of time before he wins another Grand Slam title other from the French open. He's so young, he's got his whole life in front of him!
VAMOS RAFA!!!!

Excellent post, i_love_rafa

Rafa's a great player and he's still VERY young when you look at all he's already achieved.

I have faith in him, he'll probably be one of the greatest, but it would be a mistake to expect him to win every tourney, he's also a human being and he has yet to mature. And from what I can see, big baby's learning fast ! And oh, he's got the sweetest smile
