I love how fast he responded with "David Ferrer" after the question about attitude. He must really think very highly of him, he was such a stand up genuinely nice person.
Ferrer is the tennis player' s tennis player. Everyone has so much respect for him because he could stand up and fight against the big four even though he didn't match their abilities. And people outside the big four were intimidated by his fighting spirit.
I'm sure Rafa did not want to put himself in there for anything, but the interviewer got him with "heart". He did try to think of someone else...you can see it.
As a Nadal fan I find myself more and more into Novak's backhand irresistibly. It's like a gift straight from the tennis heaven and was given to Novak, allowing him to create his own legacy as one of the tennis GOATs.
This guy is very humble. Pretty cool to hear him give props to all his opponents. And for him to mention Thiem just shows how close he is to breaking the mold.
In fact you can put Nadal in every category (apart from the serve, but his is actually super effective 90% of the time) and it will still be worthy of the title "the perfect player". That's why he's one of the GOATs (not going into THAT debate, they are all GOATs, end of.)
@Rallynub I agree. Rafa's backhand may not be the strongest in the top tier, especially compared with Novak's and Stan's (when he's playing well), but it's enough to stand toe to toe IN the top tier itself. His fondness of returning too far back from the baseline is problematic at times, but I think it's also suitable for Rafa's playing style where he likes to simply swing away. Players like Federer like to take time away from their opponent, hence returning (and hitting) fairly close to the ball bounce. It's just different styles.
i would argue that return is either a forehand or a bakchand so they don't really need to put it there, it would kind of fall under the category "reflex" or "reaction time" that they did not pick anyway.
You are close, justvread what Rafa said, and this is the only one who knows who is the best in diferent segments of game, Rafa cannot be wrong, the Djokovics is wrongh, as he was not honest 100%"", in hpis view Mahut has the best volley, the whole Wold know that this belomg to magic man Santoro, after him is Andy

The thing about Rafa is that while he isn’t the best in any particular shot (the forehand is arguable, I would say Federer’s and Delpo’s are/were better), he is the perfect mix of everything, and combined with his ability to compete, his drive and determination, and his heart, he’s able to accomplish far more than any of his competitors who may or may not be better in particular strokes, save Djokovic and Federer respectively.
The big 3 cover all except the serve that goes to Ivo......but when it comes to playing each other I think Novak has one of the most important strengths & that's Mental strength!
Yup he really improved on that. In his earlier career he was mostly losing on that aspect against the other 2. But somehow he turned that around. Btw with federer its the opposite. He was always known for being great when it really mattered. But later in his career...well you know.
His forehand is certainly more destructive when he gets to the right position. But it isn't better than Federer's overall. But he does have top 5 forehand of all time though.
Just for the fact that IT IS SO ANNOYING for other players to deal with, I just think it is the best. In a documentary somewhere, it is said that Roger had needed a lot of time to find an answer and applying it on the court. Accuracy, Annoyance, TopSpin, Power. There is just everything. If I could have one forehand ever, I would have chosen Rafa’s because I know it will be a knight mare for my opponent.
One of the most interesting aspects that few, but this interviewer did, ask -- vision. And it is so true that Federer has vision, the ability to see something that others may not (yet), and accordingly this ability gives him the ability to choose and hit shots that others want to but can't. Often, in the case of tennis, it is tied to his reflexes and movement too. And i think these abilities translate into why his interviews are often so fun and yet insightful to listen to.
Notice how besides Federer (debatably the greatest tennis player of all time), Nadal never mentions a player more than once. He tries to give a shout out to as many different players on tour as he could, when he could just choose himself for every category. Goes to show what a class act Mr. Nadal is, and why he is widely considered to be an all-time great and one of tennis’s finest players.
Maybe me ? Nadal without a doubt the biggest mind n heart, he could be winning or loosing , playing a challenger to a friendly and he will still put the same determination in every strike , la FIERAAA
Nadal is an incredibly humble and good man. The truth is you could honestly put him down for most of those categories, his only potential " weakness " is his serve but it's not weak. Plus as somebody else said, Nadal on clay especially peak Nadal on clay would beat any so-called perfect player.
I think Rafa was being modest. In his prime, the Nadal inside out forehand was the most lethal stroke in tennis. Beyond yet, I'd go with DelPo's forehand -- no one hits bigger!
In some other videos, they asked several pros who is the best at what. Surprisingly a lot of the pros chose Federer as the best forehand. I'm guessing the top pros know something us average people don't know.
@@RichardsWorldwe are talking about current generation rn. which is why i chose Delpo over Federer. Federer's forehead was lethal during his prime between 2000-2010. That won him 15 grandslam during that decade alone. If we are gonna consider overall, I would put Nadal's (2004-2009) speed over Monfils too. He was faster than Monfils back then.

@@fabiennefertiti3017 The way they use to shove that BIG 4 concept into every interview with Nadal, Federer and Djokovic just to validate their creation was cringy
Well they forgot the volley and movement and that definitely goes to roger and novak respectively. I would take rafa's forehand right up there with Roger's forehand. Both have different techniques but both forehands are so destructive.
I wonder how would this player fare: Backhand: Roddick Forehand: Gasquet Serve: Nishikori Speed: Berdych Fitness: Wawrinka Heart: Tomic Vision: A. Zverev Shot selection: Dustin Brown Attitude: Kyrgios
I don't know if I'd be mocking the fitness of a guy who's won 3 Grand Slam titles. I would've put Monfils for fitness. Every time he plays Novak he's gasping for air midway through the first set.
@@davidmcpherson2220 Oh, no no no. I wasn't mocking Stan for his fitness. I love watching Stan play myself. Also, all the other players I listed here. But these are all their weakest points, not mocking at all
@@leiya107 But is it really his weakest point? How can you win 7 best of five set matches (and do it three times!) if you're not one of the fittest guys out there. Maybe he's not at the level of Djokovic, Nadal or Thiem in terms of fitness, but I don't see how he's "weak" in that area. Probably well over half of the men's field in a Slam draw would be totally spent physically if they could ever reach a Slam semifinal. Stan, meanwhile, on three occasions has gotten to that stage and then won 6 more sets against the sport's greatest players.
@@leiya107 Looks are deceiving. Before the 2016 USO final, Stan had been on court for 17 hours and 50 minutes through six matches, compared to nine hours for Djokovic, yet he was stronger in the fourth set (when Novak was battling cramps). Monfils, on the other hand, looks like he has almost no body fat yet you frequently see him gasping for air after long rallies. Among tennis' really great players, I could definitely see putting fitness as a weak point for Sampras, who often had to bail himself out with his serve when his body was giving out on him.
A perfect forehand can be produced with a good solid week of practice, but the ability to produce it in every situation require, rhythm, timing, balance, fluidity, eyesight, patience, humility, etc. Not sure how we can measure these or weigh them against each other.

What about Wawrinka, Thiem, Gasquet for backhand ?
Volley, Footwork, Return, Tactics, Agility, Mental, Slice, Lob, Feel, Inspiration, 'God' Mode?
Volley: Federer
Footwork: Federer, Nadal
Return: Djokovic, Murray
Tactics: Murray, Nadal
Agility: Djokovic, Monfils
Mental: Djokovic
Slice: Federer
Lob: Murray, Djokovic
Feel: Federer, Murray, Djokovic
Inspiration: Del Potro, Wawrinka
'God' Mode: Federer
Wimbledon god mode xD Nole god, dont need to have mode
footwork is djokovic and agility is monfils. Djokovic isnt agile he is just really good flexibility and footwork so it looks like he is fast.
also god mode is wawrinka
@@ianr7442 I've put two people for a category because I believe two people are pretty much equals. The fact I made different choices to you kinda indicates that I disagree, no? But the idea that Djokovic isn't agile is laughable.
two extra categories...
anticipation: Djokovic, Murray
court coverage: Djokovic, Nadal, Murray (prime)
Perfect Player:
Forehand: Del Potro, Nadal
Two-hand Back Hand: Djokovic
One-hand Back Hand: Wawrinka
1st Serve: Karlovic
2nd Serve: Sampras
Return: Djokovic
Defense: Djokovic
Volley: Murray
Footwork: Federer
Mental Strength: Djokovic
GOAT: Djokovic
fan bias, no one wants to see it. peak federer is better than peak djokovic
@@jackthechristian2820 in your dreams !!
check the elo peak ratings Lmao !!
Djokovic GOAT overall !!
@@jackthechristian2820 GOAT is not about who's better at his peak ... disclaimer : i'm not saying novak or anyone else is goat ...
@@pharaon8134 once again fan bias. Federer = G.O.A.T
@@h4rder10 actually yes that is what it means
Honestly I don't think Nadal's forehand is any less than Federer's, in fact I think in many ways is better actually!!!
Agree with everything...except I might substitute Federer's forehand with Rafas...his topspin and high bounces makes him nearly unbeatable on clay..
I would give Nadal the nod for heart , attitude and speed
Shouldve added mental and djokovic for it and its perfect.
What happened with nalbandian BH and SHOT SELECTION?????
BBC: I'll put Andy Murray in there for everything.
@Brendan Mather Why are you strawmanning the BBC? The BBC clearly stated he was the first British male to win a singles title since 1936. His brother won a mixed doubles title. They're hardly comparable achievements.
Exactly! to keep rolling the fallacy of the "Big 4"
@@fabiennefertiti3017 The way they use to shove that BIG 4 concept into every interview with Nadal, Federer and Djokovic just to validate their creation was cringy
@Brendan Mather Wimbledon mixed doubles is virtually nothing. Nobodies play mixed.
Where is return??
Nadal could have put himself in every category. Novak and Roger could fit into almost all as well.
Federer twice that's Fedal ❤
cool rafa,would you like the 3rd cup of knots?
Nole Goat
Lmao no
No ,there are still 2 players ahead
@@TheM31ShadoW Nolendestroyed Fedal
@@НиколаТесла-ъ2й how many times they destroyed him lol
@@TheM31ShadoW 56>49 for NOLE
Well they forgot the volley and movement and that definitely goes to roger and novak respectively. I would take rafa's forehand right up there with Roger's forehand. Both have different techniques but both forehands are so destructive.
I wonder how would this player fare:
Backhand: Roddick
Forehand: Gasquet
Serve: Nishikori
Speed: Berdych
Fitness: Wawrinka
Heart: Tomic
Vision: A. Zverev
Shot selection: Dustin Brown
Attitude: Kyrgios
I don't know if I'd be mocking the fitness of a guy who's won 3 Grand Slam titles. I would've put Monfils for fitness. Every time he plays Novak he's gasping for air midway through the first set.
@@davidmcpherson2220 Oh, no no no. I wasn't mocking Stan for his fitness. I love watching Stan play myself. Also, all the other players I listed here. But these are all their weakest points, not mocking at all
@@leiya107 But is it really his weakest point? How can you win 7 best of five set matches (and do it three times!) if you're not one of the fittest guys out there. Maybe he's not at the level of Djokovic, Nadal or Thiem in terms of fitness, but I don't see how he's "weak" in that area. Probably well over half of the men's field in a Slam draw would be totally spent physically if they could ever reach a Slam semifinal. Stan, meanwhile, on three occasions has gotten to that stage and then won 6 more sets against the sport's greatest players.
@@davidmcpherson2220 But come on! Don't tell me you don't see Stan's paunch! He's definitely got a few extra pounds on that he can do without!
@@leiya107 Looks are deceiving. Before the 2016 USO final, Stan had been on court for 17 hours and 50 minutes through six matches, compared to nine hours for Djokovic, yet he was stronger in the fourth set (when Novak was battling cramps). Monfils, on the other hand, looks like he has almost no body fat yet you frequently see him gasping for air after long rallies. Among tennis' really great players, I could definitely see putting fitness as a weak point for Sampras, who often had to bail himself out with his serve when his body was giving out on him.
Honest fair and intelligent champ Nadal.
A perfect forehand can be produced with a good solid week of practice, but the ability to produce it in every situation require, rhythm, timing, balance, fluidity, eyesight, patience, humility, etc. Not sure how we can measure these or weigh them against each other.
Yeah I know right Nadal is my favourite player
I really wish he said Tomic for heart/determination 😂😂😂
At the moment list goes like this:
1. Djokovic
2 Djokovic
3 Djokovic....
This is also the list of nadala fav players
