Queen's Club - ATP 500 - June 15th to June 21st

Q. What's the longest river in the world? A. De Nile

Did you just think that all by yourself? And what would be your point with this deep insight?

I am actually happy with how Rafa is playing, he might have lost and he needs improvement but the signs look good...The energy seems to be back....I don't have an exact word for it ( as in its something along the lines of energy, confidence, focus ) but that something was missing from his body language and deamenor on court and I feel its back

Does anyone know what Rafa's grass seedlings ranking is at this point.

Annacone spoke to it last week; if Rafa's between #5-12, it's not a problem! You wind up meeting the same players in the draw; just upside down numbers with Rafa's low seeding! It's going to happen to Roger next if he doesn't defend those points at Halle, Wimbledon, & Cinn.! Just OTTH, I see Roger dropping to #6 before the year is out! He's already there in the race to the WTF! :angel: :dodgy:

^ Roger would drop to 6th if he does crappy on fast courts. I think he'll start to pick it up.

There are a lot of landmines in that draw this week! IDK if it's because I'm looking closer or what; but I've been very impressed with the depth of the draws, even if there aren't as many upsets as there should be! :cover uzzled :nono :angel: :dodgy:

Ah...

Nothing like waking up in the morning, discovering that Nadal has lost and then seeing how the tennis community reacts. :snicker

3 pages about Halle for 8 about Queens. It seems that this tournament has more views and interest than the other one....why?

Because, basically, fans and detractors alike are glued to their tellys for the next episode of "What the Heck is going on with Rafael Nadal?"

And the best of all is his reaction after the loss. He doesn't look to be very worry, on the contrary he says that he is thinking the same like yesterday. He has played 5 matches on grass before Wimbledon, same like in 2008 and even that he lost today he feels good and very motivated

Could I just stand up and be counted as one who is just as interested in a tournament whether Mr. Compulsive-Bottle-Liner-Upper is in it or not? I probably enjoy the ones where he's not around much more.

Yep, it's incredible how much attention Rafa takes from everybody

But it seems quite the contrary of what you say :lolz: :laydownlaughing :snicker

I don't expect you to understand. That's ok.
