Why did Rafael Nadal, the king of clay lost ???Overconfidence ??
Lack of sleep night before ??
Grit of the opponent ??
Health ??
Injury ??
All bull shit...
There was something strikingly different in Nadal this year...
And am not talking about his game...
It was his attire...
Why the f*** in this world he decided to wear sleeves ??
Believe it or not...
Its the sleeved T shirt...
Nothing else...
For 4 years we witnessed those bulging biceps, raw power and in your face attitude...
Even he knew it...
The moment he decided to dress a little "conservatively", he paid the price...
He himself was able to see them in those famous fist ups...
Battle was more than lost already...
Moreover...
PINK ????????
And that green headband (or fluorescent yellow as some of you might call it)...
It was a signal...
Its green, go over me...
As long as it was RED, there wasn't any stopping him...
All sport pundits and analysts, please stop breaking your heads over the loss...
It was that loose, sleeved, pink T shirt...
Get him a fitting sleeve less and he will win again...
A plead for all those Federer fans(including me)...
Please find a way for making him wear sleeves in Wimbledon also...
And for that matter ALL the time...
At least till the time Federer retires...
Not that Federer CANT beat him, but with every passing day it is getting as difficult as India making it to the FIFA...
With both Nadal and Djokovic out, this probably is the BEST chance for Federer to get his 14th grand slam and get the ever elusive French Open in his kitty...
That's a different story altogether, that Fed-Rafa finals are a treat to eyes and quality of tennis is unmatched...
And the real celebrations would be him beating Rafa in finals...
But with Fedex ending up on the loosing side most of the times...
I rather would watch yesteryear's highlights for the feast...
