I′m left hand too and like to use top spin. I woluld like to know how many pounds you use in your raquets normaly, I use 58 pounds if I use more of this have dificult to use top spin. you have this dificult too. I use the same raquet. Thanks,João Novaes 问Rafa打球用的磅数为多少 Rafa: I string them at 25 kgs. (around 55 pounds) hi Rafa On 2 occasions during your match with Nicolas Almagro at the French Open you threw the ball up when serving and then caught it and served again. You apologised on both occasions by saying 'sorry' in English. It was funny because because you were playing another Spaniard. Do you find yourself speaking more and more English on an everyday basis? Lynne Davis 问Rafa是否觉得自己愈来愈常说英文? Rafa: Hahahahaha. No, but normally we say sorry because it is shorter than perdona or lo siento... HI Rafa, Love to watch you play, so exciting ! Just wondered do you ever tape and listen to the commentators who are covering your matches!!!! They are sooooooo complimentary about you, about your game and personality, I think you would get a laugh out of listening to them. JILL, London Ontario 问Rafa是否有听评论员讲评自己的比赛? 他们对你可说是赞赏有佳 Rafa: No, I normally don't listen to them because I am playing... :-) or if they speak English then it is more difficult... But thanks for the info. I will thank them too when I see them. Hi Rafa, firstly congratulations on the French Open and Queen's Club success - you were brilliant! I am fascinated by the different ways you grip your racket - it is so very different from when I was taught to play (unfortunately I'm 47!). With these lighter rackets and being face on to the ball as it comes to you, how do you get such amazing pace on the ball? All the very best & make it all three tournaments. You deserve it! Claire Huddlestone 问题大意是请教Rafa的打球方法 Rafa: Many thanks. Difficult to answer this question. This is how I play and how I was taught by my uncle. Hola Rafael. Rafa, I must admit (hope you forgive me) I am a bit envious of your girlfriend. She managed to find a guy that's humble, ambitious, family orientated and very beautiful, that's rare to find. So I was wondering, are all the boys like you in Manacor? And if one was to holiday in Manacor, what top 5 things or hotspots would you recommend? Cedrine. 前面说我必须承认我有点嫉妒你的女朋友，问题是说在Manacor的男孩是否都像你? (编按；我想应该是问是否都像你这样的个性) 如果有机会去Manacor你会推荐的五件事? Rafa: You should definitely visit Manacor. That's all I can say !!! Hi Rafa, Very serious question. I think I remember you once said you couldn't do something most people also can't do. That leads me to my question: have you learned how to wiggle your ears? :-) Amy, USA 有尝试过无规律的摆动耳朵吗? Rafa: :-) Not really ! Hi Rafa ! I admire the fighter you are on the court and hope you will win the title this year ! You explained in previous blogs that sometimes you go to bed quite late in the evening (or very early in the morning!!!). Do you prefer to play your match the day after at the beginning of the tennis session or at the end of the day? Can you indicate your preference to the umpire? Estelle - France 问Rafa打巡回赛时你希望较早打还是较晚打? Rafa: I day like today when Spain was playing I prefer to play early, first round. But it is at 1 pm so it's not that late. I don't like to play very late at night like it happened in Australia last year. You rule! I read where you were afraid of the dentist(?) Is there anything else you're afraid of? Also, what's your drink of choice, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic? Marty from Cincinnati 除了看牙医外你还有害怕的东西吗? 还有你喜欢的饮料是? Rafa: I am not that much but I don't enjoy them too much. My drink is Coke and juices. I don't really like alcoholic drinks. Dear Rafa, I’ve tried many times to ask you a question – since last Wimbledon last year and my questions never got picked!!! I hope you do. How did you manage to get a seat in David Beckham’s box with Mr & Mrs Tom Cruise for his last game with "Los Merengues"? Is David Beckham a friend? Are you hoping that Christiano Ronaldo signs for Real Madrid next season? Adeline, from Malaysia 足球相关问题.. Rafa: Hummm. Well I was invited there by Real Madrid. I know them well and they always take very good care of me. Tom Cruise happened to be there. I met David Beckham in Madrid when he was playing and also I was lucky to have him come to see my matches. An honour for me. Regarding Ronaldo, yes I hope he comes since I love the way he plays. Hi Rafa Are you much of a music fan? Not sure if you know but there are two massive music events happening in England this weekend. The Glastonbury Festival runs all weekend and the Nelson Mandela 90th Birthday tribute concert is in London on Friday. If you're stuck for something to do - and are keen to get out of the house - you should head down as some of the world's biggest stars will be at both events. You'd need a tent for Glastonbury though, and some wellies! Have a good weekend Amy, Harrogate 内容主要描述邀请Rafa参加英国当地的音乐盛会 Rafa: Yes, I love music but I can't go to a concert during the tournament, but thanks for the info and I suppose the invitation ! Hi Rafa. Good luck at Wimby, I really feel that it will be your year. What do you think of all the recent press attention that has been focused on you personal life? Does it annoy you that the paparazzi take photos of your girlfriend? Best wishes, Anna, Cornwall, UK 对於有些媒体关注焦点放在你的私人生活你有什麽看法? 对於狗仔队拍你女朋友照片 公诸於世你是否感到生气? Rafa: Actually those pictures are old, 2 years old !!! I don't like that they go into my personal life but they do. Nothing I can do other than smile. They'll get tired one day. I just think that I am always giving everything to the media, so when I am free, not working I would prefer to be alone not bothered. --
