Feeeeel it people, it is here! The most watched single sporting event
in the world is, well need I say, hours away!
Lets get down to it. Some exciting news for all tennis fans - after
not playing since pulling out of the French Open in May with a wrist
injury - King of Clay Rafael Nadal was practising on court in Rio on
Monday night. Hmmm.
The rumour mill had been loaded with doubts that he would be fit
enough for the Olympic tennis tournament, which starts on Saturday,
but this is at least a promising sign.
Nadal, who won singles gold at Beijing 2008, did ice his wrist
afterwards... but wore a beaming sign as he did so.
We all hope he is fine...
