I only watch tennis because of him. It is thrilling to watch him play, and I am happy to watch him play even if he loses. He is so humble and does not take any opponent for granted. He plays his heart out. His humility, respect, kindness, and maturity make him exceptional and complement his athleticism.
Me too. I only ever watch highlights of the other players, but I make time to watch entire Nadal l matches. I've also seen all the finals he's won at least 3 times.
Roger used to be my fave but slowly I loved Rafa that little bit more coz he so nice a respectful and proper, this guy we will never see the like of again
The humility of rafa is incredible that makes him do the amazing play in tennis. So rafa the challenges continues and it seems you will stay longer in Madrid than you think. Congrats for another victory,vamos The next will. Be more fun and excitement for rafans. For now enjoy the moment. You'll never know how proud and happy are rFans especially The way Madrid treated you as their hero. The cheers, shouts, song, never ending claps of the crowds, really unbelievable and it's solely for you rafa. I believe your not finished yet. Go on rafa nadal you are always the life of the crowd in the court and in passing, practices and Iinterviews. A real humble man of the hour. Your presence makes us lo very tennis more , God bless you. You will regain your best and your glory until the Roland Garry's. Keep on ❤🎉playing rafa, keep on doing what you can to stay in this sport, good luck
And Nadal has shown once again that if he was 100% healthy nobody would've stood a chance against him, even at this age. De Minaur is a top 10 player (11th now but definitely a top 10 form) and Nadal beat him in 2 straight sets.
@@natoskull2might have something to do with his opponent, no? Have you seen the bounce of Rafas forehand today compared to last week ? It jumped higher than demons preferred height almost every single time . That explains most of the ‚unforced errors‘. Tennis stats aren’t created in a vacuum, dude. Even Novak misses more against rafa on clay compared to other opponents. The tv cameras don’t do the spin justice, go and see it live. It’s unreal, amateurs wouldn’t make a single shot against his forehand.
@@tlefevre2918 De Minaur never I have a feeling will pass some level. Still de Minaur played level down and Rafa level up (since 2nd set) - comparing to Barcelona.
Rafa admitted he was not fully there. So did the commentator who says at times. Anyway, what is true is Rafa's 70%-80% is still better than others. 90-100%
It's okay. Take it essy, Rafa. Like Roddick said, even if you don't win anything anymore, we will always be grateful for and appreciate what you have done.
why no one asks the most important thing, which is how he felt on court. That's what's gonna determine the chances he has to achieve good results, as he said (and as we know) tennis is hardly the problem.
Rafah could take a giant step to declaring himself at least part way back if he beats Medvedev. Medvedev will be a great test for Rafah’s stamina as Medvedev has long rallies that take your legs out from under you.

Rafa is so honest with his assessment of himself. That is why this guy is so loved. LOVE YOU RAFA.
Djokovic is also so honest but doesn't get the same love. He's honest about how good he is 😁
@@jpm545you mean when arrogance and ego shines. Yeah, I guess I see why he doesn't get the same recognition as other legends
💖💖💖
@@jpm545😂😂😂 funny

wdym? de minaur was defintiely not playing like a top 10 in this match
@@tlefevre2918 Yes, throwing every ball out today, unlike what it was in Barcelona.
@@tlefevre2918and how was he playing then ?

One game at a time please!
Well done Rafa! All the best always!!!!
He played very well 👍
Hats off Rafa
Immenso RE NOSTRO RAFAEL
Best person ever ❤❤❤🎉
Спортсмен может и лучший, а утверждать, что как человек? Только могут родственники и то не все...
@@user-px5cd9ye8o can't read your language 🤷🏻♀️
One more RG title please I'm begging you

What past injuries are affecting him?
It's okay. Take it essy, Rafa. Like Roddick said, even if you don't win anything anymore, we will always be grateful for and appreciate what you have done.
The screen is reversed, it's like watching a mix of nadal and max holoway

They did ask him. He said he felt great with no pain but will have to wait and see how he feels tomorrow.
Keep the warm up going.
His loss in agility is noticeable. His top spins aren't helping either. He never really uses flat shots.
Il faut qu il finisse sa carrière en beauté..... pour que son fils puisse admirer son papa
from his perspective, he can only be back as "old Rafa" the moment he stands in the final.
not YET
He even said 'next time', so it's nice to think he's confident he can return to fully fit form this season
🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕
Looks like he should loosen up his strings a little bit.
Nadal is finish😅
Rafah could take a giant step to declaring himself at least part way back if he beats Medvedev. Medvedev will be a great test for Rafah’s stamina as Medvedev has long rallies that take your legs out from under you.
His skin color has become like that if the red clay
He's not Rafael and little of he
Retire
Hahaha cry about it
How about you retire from watching RUclips and making comments?
not your decision bubba boi. you can drink your champagne when he does, but its not upto you. his decision.aline. cope.
