      YES! My Rafa is now #1 with me – and now the world! Rafa has also won the prestigious 2008 Prince of Asturias Award for Sports!

      “The Prince of Asturias Foundation’s statutes establish that the aim of the Awards is to acknowledge and extol ‘scientific, technical, cultural, social and humanistic work carried out by individuals, groups or institutions worldwide’. Consonant with this spirit, the Prince of Asturias Award for Sports ‘will be bestowed upon the individual, group or institution whose lives are not only examples to others, but who have also reached new heights in mankind’s struggle for excellence, and who have contributed by their efforts to perfecting, nurturing, promoting and disseminating sport’.”

      Proof of his exemplary sportsmanship! Sorry. I get carried away sometimes by all the excitement Rafa generates.
