Al iniciar este post me encuentro en el avión de regreso de Madrid a Mallorca ayer asistí a una reunión muy productiva en la Caja Mágica. También me hubiera gustado presenciar en directo el partido entre Nadal y Del Potro que no se disputó por la inesperada lesión y abandono de Del Potro por problemas en la cadera.

At the beginning of this post I'm on the plane's return from Madrid to Mallorca, yesterday I attended a very productive meeting in the magic box. Also I would have liked to see alive the match between Nadal and del Potro who not took place because the unexpected injury and abandonment of “del Potro” due to problems with in his hip.
The meeting was an finish completely unifier, we were present,investors, athletes, trainers and specialists in recruitment of sponsorship to analyze and organize the basic principles of a new project, which aims to tennis players to reach as far as possible and always looking for sporting excellence entirely.
On the plane's return I was still giving turns to one aspect that I have repeated several times in the blog and more even after seeing for the first time the magic box, new and impressive installation, where it is developing The Madrid Master 1000 , and be able to check again what moves the tennis, what a little, and the few who win or live from tennis that are looking for having the profession of tennis players, in fact classified between position 1 and 150.
The other players, some considered to be professionals, but actually amateurs because to them practicing sports cost a lot of money, as well as many coaches on the competition that in moments have or must desist from dedicating solely to the competition.
Once again I reiterate in exposing why tennis players (which should already be professional) that they have played the Quali of this Master are still loosing money playing the tournament, this without going to analyze the benefits of the money invested up to play the Quali. I still do not understand why there is not any responsible for tennis who had worried about these situations and found solutions to that not only 150 players could eat from tennis. The continuation of this post I am carrying out already at home enjoying watching one of these duels (Nadal vs Federer) that make history, and as itcould not be otherwise tight, and more taking into account that the conditions indoor, the height and the best of three sets is where even more Federer has more to say but do not forget that the surface, the Earth, where Rafa is invincible.
And as you would expect it being a very balanced match in which each one is trying to implement their best weapons and that when one loses a little concentration the other win immediately his pattern, and so it is happening, if Rafa implanted its intensity of game with long and deep balls causing errors by accelerating to Federer and vice versa when Rafa continues to print this intensity and back in the game and their bolls are to short and his legs stop is Federer who takes over the court and win his shots.
5/7 6/2 6/3 for Nadal. Nothing to envy with matched experienced in this 1000 Master of Madrid between Roger and Feliciano Lopez or Gimeno and Llodrá or Djokovic and Ferrer and sure at the end of morning all will go to that the final will be between Rafa and Djokovic number one and two, it will also be a great game in a hellish pace, as described me it Rafa after the semi-final of the 2009 between the two.
Now Sunday waiting for this afternoon to enjoy the final many colleagues ask me how I see the end and today I'm going to say before the match. Rafa his constant work has become a number one on their own merits, and no one can argue that when it is at his highest level he is the best on allsurfaces, began being on Clay, then Grass and eventually in Hard.
Get to his level of playing will be over others in all surfaces imply him to maintain a constant and total concentration for not downloading all their intensity in game, their position within in the court, which along with its shots overflowing their opponents to which they have no choice but to anticipate, and risking too, before feeling overwhelmed or to have the patience and the ability to fight, to recover and find a better opportunity to attack.
What for my has happened in the last finals between Rafa and Djokovic in which Rafa started winning overflowing his rival there was later a loss of concentration of Rafa, who suddenly ceases to maintain intensity in his game, in benefiting the opponent which took the initiative of the point and the position on court and being Djokovic, good server, and beside on hard court , this loss of concentration and in addition to a lack of intensity becomes irreparable.
As I have heard many times from Toni Nadal “normal is what has been happening don't occur only because a final or an important match, that is why we have to have that today a loss of concentration or intensity come back, although I have no doubt that the duo Nadal (Rafa and Toni), have been working on it, to reach to change it in a favorable way to Rafa. But in any case it is better that it happens in hardcourt than in Clay, fortunately for Rafa, he has more solution playing clay. Let´s also say that Madrid altitude and indoor is a benefit to good servers. But in any way I bet for Rafa, in a few hours we could enjoy this match.
Perhaps that The Magic Box, will realize that magic will appear, and the ATP, accountable put some of the money won in this tournament to tennis players qualified up of 150th knowing that his profession is costing a lot of money to those.
Muy buen post Toni. Reflexiones muy interesantes y con comentarios acertados.
ResponderEliminarMuchas gracias Lisandro. Aunque hay que destacar y así lo haré en el siguiente Post que en este momento Novak es el jugador con mejor nivel y en la final de Madrid no fue un tema de concentración si no de nivel de juego y en las condiciones de Madrid Novak impuso su nivel.
