Is Rafa Nadal, the Majorcan tennis hero who was knocked out in the first round of Wimbledon leading to fresh injury fears. Nadal is now back in his native Manacor after one of the most surprising exits in recent tennis history. He travelled to London after his success at the French Open and he was one of the favourites to take the tournament. There were no doubts over his fitness although it was unusual that he didn't play any of the grass preperation tournaments. Rafa then shocked the tennis world with his exit from Wimbledon. Ever the gentileman he refused to say anything about a possible injury for fear it may detract attention away from his opponent and the winner of the match.
