Disappointed to read comments about Rafa’s hair. Really? After all we’ve been through and on #AusOpen Day One? I’ll never understand why we can’t enjoy and appreciate the good things — and the good people — in life. Why does everything have to be a joke at someone else’s expense?

In 2016, World Number 5 underwent a hair transplant to replenish his thinning hair. In this procedure, doctors transplanted 4,500 follicles onto his scalp, which took almost ten hours.
