they said that even though rafa still hasnt begun barcelona,he's in many promotive events,such as this one-santana came and gave rafa the racket,with which he won wimby in 1966 and rafa gave him the racket from montecarlo and said sth like :'at his time probably not,but today...(laugh)' (i dunno what the interviewers question was!).and afterwards he came back to his usual work and santana said he considers rafa to be the best in history and that he will win THE grand slam soon or later..
true as far as physical demand goes. but to stress down the fierceness of the competition and stop players from getting exhausted or tired too quickly , one needs to develop smart intelligent play instead of forcing yourself into involve in a slugfest.
for that reason wooden racquets will help concentrate on game in general. then results will automatically come. add to that physical demand , spectators will get to see more matches. wta i have no clue.
Will never happen! Besides, fancy racket or not, you still require all round good skills if you want to be top 5, even top 10. Back in the day, the physical demand wasn't as great and there wasn't such fierce competition as there is now. ATP is fine, it's the WTA that needs a boost
yeah i agree WTA totally sucks now maybe if williams' sisters would participate some more in the events,for me they are always #1!

can someone translate the interview in english?
they should just play tennis with wooden rackets one whole tournament in the entire year.
it might help a lot of players develop just the game in general
