FB – a real menace

A baby-faced Rafa takes on good friend and mentor Carlos Moya. For the most part, the match was fairly boring – Moya wasn’t playing his best and Rafa wasn’t showing a lot of emotions. I included two change-overs in the vid because of what the announcers are talking about in one of them (too much tennis, physical and mental burn-out – yeah, they’ve been singing that song since way back when) and to show how cold it was in the second one.

FB – Hamburg 2003

Moya has to tell Rafa which chair to sit in, but a very young Rafa ends up beating his mentor. He also tries to steal Moya’s towels! Sneaky bastard.
