Rafael Nadal has today confirmed what all of his fans have been waiting to hear , that he is fully fit and ready to capture the only Grand Slam to elude him and complete the Slam. Speaking to Spanish daily newspaper El Pais Rafa has said he is in New York to win "the quarters or the Semis would be a good result, but when i retire no one will remember, I am here to win." With that note of determination in his voice it would take a very brave person to write him off. To kick off his bid for the last slam of the season Rafa will play Richard Gasquet on Tuesday, Arch rival and defending champion Roger Federer starts his bid for a sixth consecutive US Open title against qualifier Devin Britton.
