TENNIS: RAFAEL NADAL ELIMINATED FROM THE 2009 FRENCH OPEN

Nothing lasts forever, it’s an Iron Law of Life, & it applies equally
in Sports & their human “gods”. World Nº1 Tennis ranked player &
Spaniard RAFAEL NADAL was convincingly eliminated from the
FRENCH OPEN this afternoon by Swede Nº25 World ranked player
ROBIN SODERLING 6-2, 7-6, 4-6, 6-7.



















The Swede used his two main weapons – the “riffle” serve &
forehand – to sweep Nadal off the pitch & end any hopes of a 5th
straight French Open title. Although the Spaniard fought till the
end as a Champion this defeat will serve Nadal as an event to
reflect on & help maintain his feet on the ground. The Spaniard
can continue working on this game to make it even more perfect
& further solid. There is no doubt that Nadal will bounce back &
have Wimbledon as his next objective. The young man is destined
to do great things in Tennis & this is just a hiccup - although
important.
