First topic message reminder :

...or maybe the South American swing in late February before that (Acapulco 500 from Feb 25th which he said he was going to play...)
It was only 2 days ago he was saying he looks forward to coming back but doesnt expect to win AO13, now he says he's not even going to enter it...what's changed?
Being realistic about coming back on HC not being the best idea to test his knee....if thats the case I'm all in support of him returning back on clay.
Either way, this is becoming a huge amount of time out of the tour...it'll be 3 majors missed (if the Wimb loss is attributed to him not being right)...plus he'll be missing IW and Miami HC Masters.
Wonder what his ranking would be if he missed everything until MC....he'd have 4500-ish pts I guess (1000+1000+500+2000+Madrid)...that would still keep him top 6.

But is this even true, there seem to be conflicting reports circulating around...is he or isnt he...you never quite know with Team Nadal!

I agree Lydian everything still sounds iffy to me... Toni´s final word on Abu Dhabi


However, just as a precautionary word, Toni did state that if Rafa doesn't feel he's at 100%, then they won't make the trip as there is no point ruining all the hard word just for one week.

Doesn't sound like AO13 is concrete at all...

But in fairness I don't think AO has ever truly been concrete has it ....?

More like plexicushion these days I believe Cool

We were at the mall too over the week-end Lydian ... heh we may have brushed shoulders and not known it.. Proper state of the art isn´t it but too be perfectly frank I can never find what Im looking for there. Went to the new Media Mart.. they were as much use as a pair of cardboard wellies in a thunder storm.. landed over at Dos Mares St Javier got what i wanted and 60 euros cheaper !!!
You were literally 5 mins drive from me at the La Vista... !!! weather was good and it is beautiful again today... Glad you had a good time

We went to Media Mart twice (Saturday, then Monday for some more bits...) so yes we likely walked past each other...lol. What a huge place that is!
We had a nice coffee in the open air too in the square there...warm enough to just sit there with T-Shirts on...amazing difference with UK at this time of year...and not just the heat, but the blue skies, and the longer daylight too...all makes a huge difference! My parents have additional property on Vilamartin so we pass through your area alot. Was a lovely break...and the walks along Guardamar beach werent unpleasant either....tipping the sand sculpture guy as always of course! Smile

Of course they are brillliant arn´t they. Yes the weather now is beautiful though as I said before we did have some bitter winds... Nights are cold for us .. daresay you hardly noticed. I was looking for a Nexus 7 ... in Media Mart they were €249 plus €30 if I wanted an assistant to help me with downloading bits and bobs on to it.. Sorry Run And it was a take it or leave it attitude Yikes Dos Mares €199 and they will help me with it for nothing... Ok! and happy to do it Very Happy

Sounds like a good deal, I was looking at the mini-Ipads, and picked up the Nexus 7 too to have a look at it. What a small world hey... Smile
