Rafa certainly doesnt want to retire from a grand slam final. If it wont hurt him long term, he should finish the match.

He wont retire, though, unles its absolutely necessary. He wouldnt do that in a GS final.

Still I dont feel bad for thinking it was a tactic. Im a Nadal hater through and through.

And that means not trusting him and questioning his sportmanship and wanting him to lose no matter the circumstances.

Im not even a Nadal fan and I didnt go there. People should have all the facts before they make an assumption

I might not trust him, but I wouldnt go so far as to say I want him to lose all the time
