has improved by leaps-and-bounds but watching him as of late I definitely see him hitting his pinnacle.

Rafa is now getting ready to play his evening match against Simon. Rafa has been playing really well, and of course, now we know that Murray has been ousted.

"Nadal, who has never before advanced to the fourth round at Melbourne Park..."
How in the world does this sentence get written, when Nadal made it to the semis last year and to the quarters the year before?

Et desitjo tota la forca del mon en els partits que et queden a l' Open d' Australia. Admiro la teva manera de jugar i sobretot la teva humil actitud i respecte cap a tothom. Aprofito per felicitar al teu tiet i familia per haver-te inculcat aquesta filosofia de vida.

'Deb of MA' of course means they'll meet in the semis if MURRAY wins HIS next three matches, as the way Rafa's playing he's highly unlikely to drop a set in Melbourne this year!

Hi Deb,
No, you're exactly right. He needs to win three more rounds to meet Murray. I guess I'm just being hopeful!
Thanks,

Rafa made the semifinals last year, losing to Tsonga. He has moved forward one additional round with each year he has played the event. The only way he will meet Andy Murray in the semifinals is if he wins his next 3 matches first. Just wanted to clear that up.
