More Updates


Despite his continuing lay-off, Rafa is still keeping us all up-to-date with his exploits off court via Facebook and Twitter. Here are updates from the last three weeks. This period included a visit by his friend, Juan Monaco, so his updates are also included. (Once again I have taken the liberty of using photo-editing software to attempt to clarify some of the images.)
