brettsticker86 · 01-31-2013, 11:29 AM

If he is really slender that could take some pressure off his knees.

Great pics but I wish I could see them.

that's alright, technology can be a pain in the butt! Hmm it's hard to tell from pics, but seeing as he had to rest for along time i wouldn't be surprised if he lost a bit of muscle on his legs

His quads look surprisingly underdeveloped.
Do any of you creepy Nadal stalkers know if he always looked like that? Maybe I should ask that in Nadal News thread...

dude, calling 'em creepy and posting a question in that thread will surely result in a deluge of flaming insults

Only if someone actually answers which would be hilarious

But seriously his quads look real small compared to the rest of his leg.

Nadal's legs have little to do with winning RolandGarros. Nadal beat Djokovic in the final of RolandGarros2012, including holding 71 of 72 service games, practically on one leg. And the best Djokovic could muster was taking a set off of Nadal in the worst playing conditions in world history. Nadal can win RolandGarros no matter what his legs look like. RolandGarros2013 is shaping up to be the most exciting slam of 2013.

Did you also seem him running as fast as ever using only one leg? Which one was it that he jumped around on, slided and turned for the entire tournament - without ever letting the other foot as much as touch the ground?
He's a hero indeed...

I don't see that happening this year. i wouldn't be surprise if one of the big hitters like Raonic knocks him off in like the 4th round.

Raonic, the guy who was never able to get a set off of Nadal or even break Nadal in Tokyo, Nadal's worst surface?

Do you know that Agassi and Federer finally won RG and completed the Career Slam the year they both reached their fifth RG SF? Guess how many RG SF Djokovic has? Four and this year it is very likely Djokovic will reach his fifth RG SF. Maybe Djokovic wins his RG title the year he reaches his fifth RG SF like Agassi in 1999 and Federer in 2009. Both were odd years like 2013... Nadal's only loss at RG was in an odd year, 2009. Hmmm.
