World no. 2 Rafael Nadal has not won a title since winning the French Open June of 2006. After his unexpected race to the finals at Wimbledon, losing to chief rival and world no. 1, Roger Federer, Nadal has struggled. Earlier this month, in Chenai Open (India), where he was the defending champion, he lost in the semis against Xavier Malisse who eventually won the title.
Just today, in Sydney, he retired from his 1st round match while trailing Australian Chris Guccione 6-5 in the opening set.
With this injury and the Australian Open about to start on Monday, what hopes have the Spaniard of doing well? Well, in his website, he said that AO is still a priority and he just needs to find his rhythm by playing more matches. Well, good luck Rafa! Get well soon.
