In the last two days, two new articles have appeared on David's official site and both are, surprisingly enough, already available in English. For those who haven't seen them, the first one, released yesterday, announces that David has by now entered the second phase or stage of the rehabilitation process, which will see him doing two shifts of exercises per day "on a bike and in a pool", amongst other things. Apart from that he's now able to drive his own car again, despite having some problems getting in and out of it. And while once more calling the whole process "slow" and his current state "better than expected", David promises not to rush things.
The second article, released today, contains a closer description of the different stages of the rehabilitation process, as described by Diego Rodriguez. According to this system, David has now entered the second stage of the process. He walks with only one crutch now and does intensified work to gradually regain full mobility. Basically laying the foundation for eventually taking up proper training again at some point. Rodriguez too states that the progress David is making is currently exceeding their expectations. But he also stresses the importance of not rushing anything.
- Very good news.
And a little surprising to see the official site so active and up-to-date...

Maybe they know about this blog and feel they have to keep up. ;)
It's nice to see official site offering news which are newx...not a copy of Clarin articles...they don't even answer mails...our Nalby seems determinated to comeback even if it'll be difficult with a low ranking in january (over 100th). He won't be able to defend the indoor season points so it will a difficult way to go back in top 30 but he's a strong mind
Hi again, according to Clarin Stepanek is injured and don't know if he can play DC quarter...David must be excited to learn that..
Stepanek retired with a twisted ankle during a Challenger event, earlier this week. Should he be more seriously injured, the Czechs are in deep trouble, that's true.
Still, even if Argentina make the SF, they'll face either the USA or Croatia. And if I'm not mistaken, in both cases it would be an away tie for Argentina.
As for David, I've read an interview with Tito Vázquez somewhere (can't seem to find it again) where he said he's not planning with David this year. But expects him to come back next season.
I thought it would have been a home tie against the US based on memory from last year, looking at all the possibilities of matchups.
Just checked the DC website - you're right. Home tie against USA, away tie against Croatia. My mistake. :)
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, a tie against Croatia would be home as well. Given that the last time they played, it was in Croatia in 2006 where Chela won the fifth rubber.
Sorry for making it more embarrassing for you by not correcting both at the same time!
Don't worry. Not your fault that I got it wrong... I have no idea how I managed to overlook that 2006 tie on the list... Where is my mind...
