That's all true. The flip side is that:

1. He's wildly inconsistent

2. And I also just don't like him.

Nice image....but I don't think I understand the significance of that one either.

I'm a bit slow this week, though.

I'll stop now, that one was a little silly, was supposed to be fog for fognini getting another win.

Rafa's forehand has never gotten the respect and accolades it deserves.

When he flattens it out from time to time it might as well be a rail gun.

First set to foggy fogg. Got a lucky net cord after a great chess match rally serving for it at 30-30.

Wut? Nadal’s forehand is universally considered one of the greatest strokes in the history of tennis.

Nadal is one game away from being bageled on clay at Monte Carlo. Who would have ever thunk it?

He was serving at triple match point for the bagel and lost it. Nice recovery to finish.

I didnt get to watch it. Did fog just go off like in the AO a few years ago? Or was Rafa hurt? I don't think that scoreline is possible on clay if he's healthy.

Bump. Same here.... woke up and saw 6-4, 3-0 and had to go play a match. I just assumed it would turn around as always. There’s some chatter about wind, but that’s not a legit excuse.

I caught the end of the first, it seemed like great tennis. I missed most of the second and assumed Rafa got hurt as he looked in the tank in the final game, but he battled out of the triple match point and looked like he might make a run. Tennis Channel said Fog was just zoning. Rafa was spraying a lot of shots like I really have never seen. I was thinking the gusts may have been messing with him a little, but it didn't look as bad today as earlier in the week.

Yeah, I disagree. It gets some love,

His backhand is underrated.
