Well, miri,
“Tennis Ass” is funny, but unfotunately not correct: “Ace” translates into “As” in German and is pronounced like “us”. This German Malloquin magazine is not known for literal or factual accuracy.
“Unfortunately” that should read.
Spoilsport. ;P
Rafa will back in 2012 and will win 3 grand slams + Olympic medal again for the second time
you’ll see
well, i went ahead and let myself giggle about “Tennis Ass”. Rafa’s is the ultimate one, no?
Thanks for all the great articles Miri! Having a great time reading them all and hearing from Rafa on his thoughts of 2011. I am LOVIN the photo’s in the Kampfansage von Rafael Nadal article! Check out our boy laid back (or perhaps bored?) with his legs stretched out, feet up on his babolat bag? I love the first pic, the side on, close up of him with the dimple. Yummy! :)
PS Cant wait for WTF to start because I have been getting serious withdrawal symptoms from Miri’s pictures and captions!!
On my God – his hands in that German article!!!!!
I am not even going there wih you flissyg!!! HA HA HA!!!
