Rafael Nadal finally
completed his first round match defeating
Thomaz Bellucci 7-5, 6-3, 6-1. Though the 20-year old Brazilian showed glimpses of brilliance, he was no match for the talent of the 3-time defending champion.
Rafa also debuted his new
Nike duds for the occasion which I
previewed earlier in the season. The "incredibly hulking" Spaniard looked intimidating in the
Global Power Sleeveless in
light green spark, the
Global 3/4 Tennis Pant in
olive khaki, and the
Air Max Breathe Cage II in classic green, white, and zinc.
Good luck to all pretenders this fortnight.
