Rafa does social media:
- Rafa let us know that he and Joan were ready to play poker.
- He let us know he was trying to pace himself in the poker tournament (helps with going deeper).
- And a photo of himself and Maymo having dinner. At least that’s what he says is happening. I don’t see much evidence of dinner.

Benito let us know that Rafa was going to the Player’s Party tonight:
@rafaelnadal estará en la fiesta de jugadores del Abierto Mexicano esta noche. Quien se apunta?

No more practice today. 2 hours under intense heat is good enough for the day. Don’t you think?
