 | Injured Rafael Nadal remains a mystery26-01-2011 |
World number one Rafael Nadal said he still does not know what exactly is the injury that led to his dropping out in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. The Spaniard received his injury during the second game of the match with David Ferrer and had to receive medical care and his left thigh was bandaged. He told reporters after the match with his countryman, who lost 4-6, 2-6, 3-6: "I can not tell you because I do not know I tried my best by myself, but obviously I was not on its peak. I got the problem at the outset of the match and then if the match is over for me. " 24-year-old left-hander from Mallorca may hold all Grand Slam titles in a season like this had happened before the last 42 years. But he dropped out and now Ferrer will face Andy Murray in the first semifinal for the first year Grand Slam.
