Rafa in Miami 2012: 3rd Round

(This is just what I look like prepping for a forehand! Only not left-handed! And not as muscular! And Nadal's shot will likely clear the net!)

Continued Success! Yesterday, Our Hero, Rafael Nadal, eased his way into the fourth round of the Sony Ericsson Open, shrugging off 25th seed Radek Stepanek 6-2, 6-2. Nadal was pretty much in control the entire time. Radek managed two break points against Rafa but couldn't convert either of them. Meanwhile Rafa broke Stepanek twice in each set, finishing him off in 87 minutes. Easy peasy.

Next, Rafa will face off with No. 16 Kei Nishikori of Japan - another player he has never lost to. Let's keep up the winning ways! I really feel Rafa has a good shot at the title this year! VAMOS!
