From the outside everything looks easier

1. Greetings champion. One question , do not you have ever raised , as is the calendar to skip entirely the " Asian tour "taking into account the forces that normally just reach the Masters Cup ? By the way , I love your kit at the U.S. Open . (David Ballestrino )

Thank you very much . The truth is that the Asian tour is important for many reasons besides obligatory Shanghai tournament that gives many points to be a 1000 Masters . With which to go for only one tournament does not make sense . Is mandatory as it is ( ranking issues , etc.). and then another before and I'll take the tour well. If not with time changes , etc. is impossible.

2. Hola Rafa. After Wimbledon I took a rest . As an athlete I know that it is sometimes difficult to respect the recovery periods . At first good, but after a few days and the itch comes back with strength training ... If you also spend , how you been , you have a trick to control that anxiety and allow the body and mind a rest ? Thanks and good luck in the tournament. (Paul Smith)
The truth is that it is the need to rest so that there is this bug . Only a few days of rest there because in my case I had the knee treatment , recovery and then preparation and training for tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati. Sounds like a lot but it is not.

3. Hola Rafa ! Congratulations on the season you lead, falls also hope the U.S. Open. I live in Johannesburg and I saw you on the 11th of July at the Soccer City. We were under you a large group of Spanish . I would like to tell us what did you feel when Iniesta scored and the final when Spain won the World Cup and if in some way comparable to what you feel when you win a tournament. Suerte ! (Pablo González Rodrigo)
You put it in capital letters : INCREDIBLE , UNIQUE! ! that great happiness . I could not stop mourn !!!!. It is different from a tournament, but an amazing feeling !

4. A greeting. As I said the other day your manager, I think you're a reincarnation of a teacher of tennis. From the first times I saw you playing I noticed you had a special power. Although I also believe that the key is your uncle Toni , who for me has something special , who is the person who most influenced your life, to build this character? (Cesareo Gonzalez Alén )
Jajajajaja . Maybe my uncle Toni , my father, my mother, my uncle Miguel Angel ... My family at the end of the day.

5. Hi Rafa, good luck for the tournament and congratulations on the piece of the season you're playing. I read that in December will play a charity match with Roger Federer in Switzerland. Do not have thought of also to resume the match against Malaria "Nadal Versus Casillas ? A kiss. (Ana Toribio )
Thank you very much . If Federer playing in Switzerland for his foundation. I will tell you more things later.

6. Hola Rafa. Congratulations on your dedication , modesty and hard work. Why can not tennis coach on the track to assist the player in each break as in the Davis Cup or most of the sports ? Gracias ( José Spain)
They are rules that some are okay and others not so well. Anyway, that's the rules. I do not know if it falls as much as is fine, but you speak from the bench did not seem so bad. For that we have coaches , right?

7. Come on Rafa, another effort. Tell us how the day passes in this tournament in regards to recovery , stretching, massage, ice, etc. I find it incredible how much you are capable of withstanding whiplash. I have a son 8 years playing tennis and occasionally comes with discomfort . It is very strong as yours. (Eladio Barroso)
The important thing is to recover , rest and prepare. Ice is only when there is pain or swelling in joints . It is also important to stretch well every day. I do it for the night in the hotel after dinner. Finally, there is a whole routine.

8. Rafa , I wish you all the luck in the world in the U.S. Open from Argentina ... What do you usually do in your spare time in New York? A kiss. ( Stefania Homedes )
There is not much time , believe me. Have I ever gone to see things ( more before than now) or buy something, or taking a walk . We have close to Central Park and also went to run the other day with Rafel Maymo , my physio . What I always do is go out to dinner .

9. Hola Rafa ! Next week we look at Flushing Meadows. Do you need two sparring partners to train one afternoon ? A couple of balls you put up with , hehe. What players train regularly? Good luck. I hope you conquer the last thing you have left and I see it. Kisses (Lara Lopez Mestre)
Perfect , jajajaja. Ground training or with peers or juniors in the second week when there are fewer players if I'm in the tournament. Hopefully it will be well and continue the streak ...

10. Hello . Is it true as they say in the TV retransmissions , which lacks kick your wrist and that's why not you get so strong? Do you descontrolarías much if you did ? Thank you very much . (Pablo Gutiérrez Talledo )
Maybe. But it is not easy to do what we know to do . Maybe from the outside everything looks easier , or at least that happens to me even when I watch football.
