2012年的美網 這樣的場景確認看不到了......
當然,在決賽中也絕對不會看到
寶貝與蠻牛像這種不是冤家不聚頭的組合
去年大大小小決賽打到天長地久沒完沒了
那想到今年兩人碰頭的機會會那樣的少
昨天看到Euro sport專欄作家Simon Reed寫的
"Is it time to start worrying about Rafa? "
才正想要找個時間好好的來看看呢
哪想到 隔了沒多久,這樣的消息就釋放出來了
Nadal out of US Open
Spain's former world number one Rafael Nadal will not play at the US Open due to injury.
球迷平日只有在臉書上偶爾看看寶貝的臉書留言 沒空follow其他的選手,
自然沒有在第一時間看到這則Rafa親自發的訊息:
"I am very sad to announce that I am not ready to play the US Open in NY," Nadal said. "Thanks to my fans for their support and specially, the new yorkers."
不過這種消息是傳很快的,很快的大家都知道了
看來 這一次的Rafa 好像真的是需要很長的時間"修理"他自己了
四大沒能聚首四強 總是讓球迷覺得很遺憾
有時候 當然也覺得老戲碼一直演一直演一直演有一點煩
不過 當現在確定這齣劇不再上演時 卻頓時感到失落與惆悵
是說,寶貝無法跟Amigo的蠻牛相約在紐約了
他會不會傳個訊息給Rafa說,
想念我的話可以去看"The Expendables 2 (浴血任務2)"
玩一玩找找看Nole在哪裏的遊戲來解解悶喔....哈哈哈
球迷又在亂說笑了
不過要養傷的話 真的是要保持心情愉快平穩
"要笑"才會有"藥效"
最後球迷只想祝福Rafa好好養傷 早日復出
畢竟有最好的敵手 才有最精彩的比賽
相信我們家的寶貝也會認同球迷這樣的想法的
以下當然又是for my own reference的紀錄了
Is it time to start worrying about Rafa? (by Simon Reed)
As we enter another tournament without Rafael Nadal, is it time to start worrying about just how bad the Spaniard's knees are? And is he capable of recovering quickly and getting back to his top level?
I do not want to write him off just yet, as I remember thinking when he pulled out of Wimbledon in 2009 it might have been the beginning of the end but he roared back to his best.
You have to be worried about the noises he is making though. He is such a good guy and has been such a major force in the game that everybody is really rooting for him to get back to his best.
You are naturally going to be more worried when Rafa gets injured than with anyone else simply because of the way he plays. Nobody puts as much wear and tear on their bodies in the world of tennis — and nobody ever has done, either.
There will come a time when his body finally says 'no more' - and I really did think that time had come three years ago.
I was surprised but very impressed at how he managed to squeeze out even more success after that setback and went on to achieve even greater things and maybe he can carry on for another three years or more and achieve even more.
However, because it is Rafa and because we all care so much about him, you do wonder what might be in store - when he gets injured it certainly is more concerning than when it happens to Novak Djokovic or Andy Murray, whose bodies don't look as likely to break down.
Looking ahead to the hard court season, it is hard to identify which player is coming into it in the best shape.
Andy Murray will certainly be full of confidence after his victory at the Olympics. That was on the grass at Wimbledon but it was still relevant.
In some ways he has got a monkey off his back. The British public were beginning to believe that he was a loser. Of course, those of us in tennis know this has never been the case, but being able to call himself Olympic champion will get some people off his back.
Would he have swapped the Olympics for Wimbledon? Of course he would. A Grand Slam remains another rung up the ladder. The Olympics is not the 'be all and end all' of tennis like it is in other sports, you can't deny that.
However, you also can't write off its significance. It was a huge achievement beating Djokovic and Roger Federer back-to-back to win the gold.
It will help psychologically going into the US Open and he should be in a very positive frame of mind. There is no doubt Federer was off his game in the final - I'm not sure if there was something underlying there like an injury bothering him - but it was surprising how easy it was for Andy.
Federer has played a major part in many of Murray's disappointments in recent years, which means Andy would have enjoyed the win even more. But that's not to say I'd make Murray favourite for the US Open.
Djokovic was disappointing at the Olympics but is starting to play well again. Rafa is just a big question mark while Federer's performance in London also sees doubt surrounding him. I think maybe he was just trying too hard to win the gold medal: Olympics singles gold is, after all, the only thing he's never won. If that is all it was, then he still must start as favourite for the US Open, but he was very subdued in that final.
All this means that this just might be the Grand Slam where we have a winner away from the top four. I can't tell you who that will be, but Jo-Wilfried Tsonga - if he's okay after walking into that fire hydrant - or even former winner Juan Martin Del Potro could come into the mix and that's the first time we've said that for a while.
Nadal out of US Open (by Reda Maher)
Spain's former world number one Rafael Nadal will not play at the US Open due to injury.
The 26-year-old announced his decision on Twitter, with the tournament organisers also confirming he would not be in the draw at Flushing Meadows when the tournament begins on August 27.
"I am very sad to announce that I am not ready to play the US Open in NY," Nadal said. "Thanks to my fans for their support and specially, the new yorkers."
The US Open added that they understood his decision and hoped he would return in 2013.
"Rafa has informed us that he will not be ready to compete at the US Open this year and has withdrawn from the tournament," tournament director Dave Brewer said.
"We hope to see him back on the court soon and look forward to his return to New York next year."
The 2010 champion in New York and 11-times Grand Slam winner has suffered from a nagging knee injury since his surprise second-round Wimbledon exit to Lukas Rosol back in June.
He subsequently withdrew from defending his Olympic title in London, before missing the Toronto Masters and this week's tournament in Cincinnati.
Clay specialist Nadal has suffered from knee problems since missing a chunk of the 2009 season, with concerns that an all-action baseline game places extra pressure on his joints, particularly on the harder courts.
Nadal was not one of the favourites for Flushing Meadows - with Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic boasting stronger records in New York and Andy Murray in good form on hard courts - although he would have been expected to at least reach the semi-finals.
The Majorcan did win his seventh French Open title at Roland Garros earlier this season, but has slipped to world number three following the resurgence of Federer.
That spot could be under threat if world number four Murray continues his recent run, which has seen him reach the Wimbledon final and win Olympic gold.
