Will someone answer his prayers !Well, it seems Nadal's mission on being number #1 still continues. I'm not sure if his joints will hold up.
I believe he should take a rest, and not just a weekend off. He should take 3-4 weeks off. I know he'll lose points in the race and probably open the door for Djokovic to take number #2. ok, so we all know he won't rest. Then why not play more CLAY tournaments, and give your joints somewhat a rest. It seems Nadal won't even do that.
Here is a look at the early part of Nadal's 2008 schedule:
Nadal won't be in Latin America for the first time in his career during the February post-Australian Open period, the three-time French Open winner will follow his usual schedule of playing at high profile European and Middle East events. Nadal is entered in Rotterdam and also signed up for Dubai.
"It's clear that it would be better for Rafa to play on clay, but it won't happen," said his coach and uncle, Toni. "There is no possibility that Rafa will play Acapulco and Buenos Aires."
I guess we'll see how Nadal does in Australia......things could change.
