Jethr0 yep It’s pretty weird, I play tennis with left hand too, and it’s the only thing that I do with it, this and maybe cutting with a knife, I can do it with the right, but I don’t know why It feels better with the lefty
Still waiting for Verdasco to break through.......... This is my 9th year waiting.... I want him to get his shit together soooooo bad... DAT FOREHAND DOH!
first I want to thank you for the awesome video's. now commenting on the practice, interesting that Verdasco is allowing Rafa to tee off a lot of shots. he's hitting with control for the most part straight to Rafa and then Rafa is hitting a winner either inside in or inside out, until 7:10 that is when Verdasco let him know, listen bud, enough is enough.
+TheSaxophoneMan16 yes he was..unfortunately Verdasco doesn't come to Rafa with the correct mindset very often. when he does, what happens is Madrid 2012 and Australian open 2016. Rafa can't match him for power on any stroke.
That Nadal forehand is poetry in motion. Greatest shot in tennis history. He will easily break Federer's slam record, could see him winning 23 by the end of his career.
The crowd is so annoying. Why gasp and cheer and clap as if they're playing an actual match? Any "winners" he's hitting are just practice so why gasp as if he got his "opponent?"
I love it when these two play and Verdasco wins it he almost looks apologetic to Nadal as if, "Sorry, I didn't mean to beat you man". Come on, Fernando. Enjoy your wins against these top players...you've earned it.

Love this camera angle. Wish we could have a choice of camera angles that we decide on when watching our TV's?
Verdasco has such smooth gestures and a sick topspin . Tipical spanish player
for a lefty this is a beauty to my eyes
Hector Brown did you know he is only lefty while playing tennis?

@@jethro606 wrong, he plays football lefty
I was there that day...and I'm still super happy that Nadal is still crushing it and Verdasco is still playing some good ball !
excelent definition, good quality of image
bilingue el wei
I have one thing (only) in common with these two guys LOL. Such high level rallies with both of them holding the racquet in the correct hand!
This is 1 of my favourite Vids! Verdasco and Raffa, the Kings of 4-hand topspin💪🎾👍🍗🍻
I was sitting front row, right in front of you during this practice! Great quality
+matt080670 did u see the camera ? what camera did he used to film this ?
amazing videos year by year, thank you I enjoy a lot!
Still waiting for Verdasco to break through.......... This is my 9th year waiting.... I want him to get his shit together soooooo bad... DAT FOREHAND DOH!
CST he made his break through these played that epic semi at the Aussie open
Rafa the GOAT
That lasso forhand is so adorable the best best forhand ever and stamina
FH to FH Verdasco is more lethal like Noles BH kills Nadal FH everywhere except on Clay. For variety Nadal is ahead of even Roger.

+allboutthemojo He wasn't letting Rafa tee off on anything
+TheSaxophoneMan16 yes he was..unfortunately Verdasco doesn't come to Rafa with the correct mindset very often. when he does, what happens is Madrid 2012 and Australian open 2016. Rafa can't match him for power on any stroke.
+allboutthemojo Because Rafa got a full bed of polyester string. It's a big different in power while adding tons more top spin.
+allboutthemojo difference*
Sz Ki imposible.
nadal is in spain since a cople of months
8:20 not enough top spin
Yeah that spainish guy doesn't know how to het topspin, he probably never won a match on clay of his career
This doesn't even make sense. Topspin makes the ball DROP.
@@Cooliewhistles your sense of humor is
if the ball didn't have enough topspin, it would go out. Plz learn about tennis before you comment
@@PirateTimbo68 thanks for the tennis 101, your comment should be pinned on yt frontpage
Verdasco has my fav forehand all time.
After 2009 AO I really thought Verdasco was going to be the next big thing
Two of the most sexy forehands in the game. My top 3 would be 1. Verdasco, 2. Roger 3. Nadal
I saw this practice at Indian wells
"Voltea para la foto/sonríe" no mms pinche gente ni que fuera el zoológico
jajajajajajajaja

7:51 I wonder what kind of tennis lesson can you give to a 20 Grand Slams winner lol
nadal le pega a la bola como si estuviera en una final siendo una practica,unico en su especie
Omg i thought it was lefty Felix Auger Aliassime at 4:05 :D
Rafa's forehand seems to be mistimed and flatter than normal
We all get old someday Josh !
It looks pretty damned good to me. Worked for him at the US Open this year.
In practice he plays in this way, it's normal
what camera did u used ?
But they didn't let us in the Bryan's game so irritating
Vamosy
La derecha de Rafael Nadal es un regalo de Dios
you guys are vietnamese? i can hear when you talk to each other !
Puro ASMR visual
2:05 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whos the donkey roaming around Nadal and whispering to him, like he knows how to play 😂
The crowd is so annoying. Why gasp and cheer and clap as if they're playing an actual match? Any "winners" he's hitting are just practice so why gasp as if he got his "opponent?"
Fail Kids in the Backround, omfg!
Que rabia lo que le dice la gente a Rafa, eso no es ser fan sino un pesao
Callense y dejenlo entrenar
I respect Nadal but I just hate those Spanish fans going crazy about him. Its just so annoying to hear those "Rafa" stuff.
U D1fg that’s his name, what are they supposed to say?
They're not Spanish
I love it when these two play and Verdasco wins it he almost looks apologetic to Nadal as if, "Sorry, I didn't mean to beat you man". Come on, Fernando. Enjoy your wins against these top players...you've earned it.
