Its grand final day and I’m pumped as I walk through the entrance and into the courts, the crowd goes wild. Me and the couch and my teammates pump me up before the game. I walk up to face my opponent, roger federa. The ref tosses the coin and I lose the toss. I was winning halfway through and from there on I was great. After half an hour or so it was a tiebreaker match point to me. I severed a powerful serve and almost knock roger off his feet. It was a long rally, lots of powerful forehands and backhands. After a while I changed my plan and came up close to the net. I volied and put spin on the ball so roger had to dive for it. It was a high ball so I couldn't get around it, so I had to hit it under my leg, and the ball went into the far right corner and roger was to stunned to get it. He let me have the win. I realise I was still running and trip, I jump up to save me the embarrassment but I fall back down again, pain starts surging up my leg and I wince in pain. I touched my head to feel it all soggy and wet, I thought it was sweat but then I fainted. I woke up to find myself In a hospital bed with roger next to me. I was glad to se him with me. He told me what happened, and how I hit my head and stuff. I had a cast over my leg and the doctor said id be out of tennis for a couple of years with all the physio therapy. But I needed a break anyway so I was happy. Said by Rafael Nadal himself.
