RIP
I'm putting this news here cos there have been insensitive remarks about Rafa's wife missing a few of his matches. Her dad was ailing for a few years and now is gone too young
Pain in the Nadal-Perelló family. The Mallorcan tennis player's father-in-law has died in his hometown, Manacor , at just 63 years of age and after an illness that he had suffered from for years.
The news, advanced by the Mallorcan newspaper Última Hora , has caused consternation in Manacor. It is a bitter pill for the Nadals after the birth last October of the couple's only child, little Rafael.
Rafa's wife's father, Miquel Perelló, had been a businessman dedicated to the construction sector , and was highly appreciated in the town, where he was known by the nickname 'Patró' (patron).
In Manacor he is fondly remembered these days, as a discreet person, a quality inherited by his daughter Xisca, Nadal's wife, fleeing from fame and public exposure. A typical character of the island.
On the other side of the scale, although on a professional level, Rafa continues to drag his problems with injuries, which are taking him away from the courts, much to his regret. This same week he announced that he will not be in the Master 1000 in Madrid due to his iliopsoas injury, the treacherous muscle that was torn in the Australian open
