Nadal: Might Not Play Wimbledon

Wow. Just saw that Uncle Toni is not optimistic about Rafa defending his Wimbledon title this year.

How huge is THAT? Who thinks Roger will be back to number one by year's end?

I sincerely hope Rafa figures out what's wrong with his knee(s) and takes whatever steps necessary to recover. Missing Wimbledon now is nothing if it will keep him on the court in the long run.

I do question why Toni chose to divulge this info today, though. Why air this out the night before the French Open Final? To imply that Rafa would be there if not for the knee? To rattle Roger's or Soderling's--take your pick which one--confidence?

I'm a sneaky, suspicious bitch, so I'm sure it's nothing so sinister. The timing just seems odd.
