That means he won't be getting his own quarter of the draw when he comes back, thereby running into Novak, Andy, Roger, in the quarters or earlier. Things could tumble out of control pretty quick if he does come back rusty.

Even if he just plays the Aussie and makes the 2nd week it will go a long way toward preserving his ranking.
But didnt Rafa say that he loves competition

If he wants to make things more difficult on himself then he won't find more support anywhere then with yours truly. I've never been a fan of the guy so if he wants to skip the Aussie and let his rankings drop then thumbs up from me.

I think he was trying to say that it was a tennis forum for men (and not just about men's tennis), so you shouldn't go there. It was a fail either way.

I thought he was great He was playing better than Novak for sure.

It's the most matches of his I've seen in Wimbledon though, since they're always at a time one is at work/school and I hadn't noticed before last year you could see them online later on
