View Full Version : Lleyton's quad strain?

Is Lleyton carrying a hip flexor strain or quad strain or adductor strain, or all three?

In his Aus Open QF against Nalbandian (and also the previous match against Nadal) he seemed to want to keep his right hip flexed all the time when running. This suggests a psoas strain or a rectus femoris strain on the right side. However, when he called for the trainers they were rubbing everything on both sides of his legs (maybe to milk as much of the injury time out as possible).

Does anyone know of a site with an .mpeg file of Lleyton running to play a shot in either of his last two matches, with a limp? I wouldn't mind slow-moing it down to see if I can make a more accurate diagnosis.

It's a bit much to ask for a site where his MRI scans might be posted.
