especially the media. In 01 during the Open against Kafel; it was as plain as day that something was wrong with Guga. No he was not his head, it was his body more specifically his hip. Guga since Monte Carlo that year was talking about severe groin pains. He played through it but it caught up to him at the Open.
Later on after Oz 02 he found out that his groin pain was a symptom from the real injury the hip. Guga went to a bunch of dipshit doctors who all told him it was the groin and only after Oz did he learn the truth. In 01 after the Open Guga had so many points ahead of Hewitt that had it not been for his hip he would have finished number one two years in a row, but no we lost a great classy representative of the sport and what took his place was crass at its worst.
I don't know how the rest of you feel but I am still upset about it. I do think Guga will eventually comeback into the top 10 and top 5 and maybe get his number one ranking back. It won't happen this year but I would like to believe that he can make it back into the top ten.
When I hear people call JC the "king of clay" I laugh, He like Hewitt benefited in so many ways from Guga's injury. I want the real "king of clay" back not some pretender and as much as I do love JC's game that is what he is compared to Guga. Once Guga gets his confidence back which he lost due to his injury he will rise again and hoist that RG trophy and other clay titles and rule the sand once again.
