Nadal will back in French Open
Hate to see any match decided by injuries, but I'm glad Wawrinka won.
I still stand by my earlier point that injury timeouts needs to be looked at. I remember last season I think it was Azarenka was in the middle of choking away a match to Stephens (I think), and she decided to take a 10 minute "injury" timeout. When play resumed it was a completely different match, which Azarenka went on to win.
Imagine something similar being allowed in other sports. Getting your ass kicked in Boxing/MMA... oh wait 10 minute break please. NFL team is driving down the field for the winning TD... oh wait 10 minute break please.
[QUOTE=EnoughSaid]I'm really hoping Fed grabs Wimbledon or the US Open this year. He could have had 20+ if not for missing break chances or just mental barriers.[/QUOTE]
hmm, was that post meant for the cocaine thread?

It doesn't apply there because in boxing/MMA injuring your opponent is actually the desired result. In team games, players can be substituted.
