Editors note : Social media is on fire. RAFA pulls out of the US Open Tennis . His right wrist is still bothering him. Yes we know he plays tennis with his left hand. But he is a “Righty”.Watch him sign autographs with his Right hand. He USES THAT RIGHT HAND ON HIS BACKHANDS. Noted British journalist David Law comments NYC hasn’t had a Federer / Nadal Match up…..

Statement from Rafael Nadal:

“I am very sorry to announce I won’t be able to play at this year’s US Open a tournament on which I’ve played 3 consecutive finals in my last participations. I am sure you understand that it is a very tough moment for me since it is a tournament I love and where I have great memories from fans, the night matches, so many things… Not much more I can do right now, other than accept the situation and, as always in my case, work hard in order to be able to compete at the highest level once I am back.”

“Siento anunciar que no podré participar en el US Open, torneo en el que en los últimos años he tenido muy buenos resultados. Entenderéis que es un momento duro para mi porque es un torneo que me encanta y en el que tengo muy buenos recuerdos, de los fans, de los partidos nocturnos, de tantas cosas. No me queda otra que aceptar que no puedo competir este año y como siempre trabajar para que cuando vuelva esté preparado de la mejor manera para competir.”
