I'm just looking at the scores, but it said the physio was called, then Rafa got broken back. Is it the knee?
I missed that part but I think was Cuevas who called the physio. Meanwhile 6 double faults by Rafa.
Oops now I see that Rafa is wearing a bandage on his knee, s%^t

Hope he won't to play tomorrow, it would be crazy to play after to see him limping and not following the balls. I thought that Shanghai final result was just because he was too tired but it seems his knee is "saying something"

Rafa should shut it down and get ready for Winter(Novak)because it’s coming!

RBA is out. So, last spot goes to one of PCB, JMDP, JI or JS.

Hope JMDP makes it by beating JI.

Rafa says after the match: "My knee is not 100% but even that if I would retire from Paris It wouldn't be at 100% in London either
Then why he has to play in London? he knows that he couldn't advance too long in those conditions, he doesn't learn from the past errors, ugh!.
I think the winner of Paris will be Delpo or Cilic

Fixed that for you ;)

Just teasing, Carol.

Now all of you can sleep in peace because looking what is going on in Paris (Delpo also says that his back is bother him a lot) your idol already has the 99% to win in London closing his excellent year

Why would he continue to play.. He hasn’t a DAMN thing to gain but another ass whipping from EVERYONE at the WTF and possible causing further damage to the knee(s).. Give himself 3 months to heal,, work on a new tweaks for Roger and Novak, and focus on #17, 18, 19 with a beef up serve and a first strike mentality... Fed fans will wet their pants because this will make Roger uncomfortable,,,Its the only way

Our "idol" is a heavy favourite at the WTF under any circumstances. Nothing has really changed. Apart from a peak Djokovic playing very well, no one else could be considered a favourite there. That's of course not to say Federer will definitely win it but, on paper, it's not even close in terms of favourites there other than a healthy, peak Djokovic playing very well as I stated above. Anyone else winning would be a big surprise.

Don't worry...Roger's back could go, too, and then we'll just wait and see who limps across the finish line first. That would be a rather fitting end to 2017.

Hopefully it was a preventative move. Get some rest and play the O2.
