Over the years, I had quite a number of tennis crushes - Tim Henman, Carlos Moya, Pete Sampras but nothing compares to my fixation over Rafael Nadal. During Australian Open, I watched the semis - 5 hours and 14 minutes and the finals - 4 hours just for him. That's like a day in the office. And I sat there at the edge of my seat transfixed..
He's humble, simple and very loyal to his girlfriend Xisca in Mallorca, Spain. Always waiting for him after every match. Sigh. And he cooks. Double sigh.
Reading his blogs made me realized how normal he is even if he's number 1 in the world. Shucks.
Vamos Rafa! Can't wait to see you play again..
