Sven's Postcard - 2nd 17 hour day in the making |

As I am in the back of the official transportation I am writing you from Madrid where I am approaching my 3rd 17 hour day!

Yesterday was a day of practise with Caroline and supporting Fernando Verdasco in his win over Milos Raonic! He had to really dig deep and face the serve of Milos which is one of the best on tour!

I must admit even though the days are long we have the best player restaurant with special catering from Austria and if we eat to much the best gym on your will get you fit with the best gear sauna steam whirlpool and Olympic swimming pool for our use!

We saw Rafa practice and you have no idea how many people come out and watch and what noise they make and Rafa always having time to greet them and show recognition and appreciation!
