I believe it was the next day, Nadal met with the ball girl and her mother. They talked, took a photo and he signed an autograph for her. She was all smiles and reassured Rafa she was fine.
She just readjusted her hat and shrugged it off like it was nothing. Didn't even sub out of the game. @0:23 "yeah, yeah, i'm good, let's go" This kid is made of steel.
There was a small girl at a bank that was really loud. People were probably somewhat annoyed. I was, too. But instead of complaining in my mind, I decided that I could help the situation by calming her down. I used small sounds with my mouth to kind of imitate a mother's way of calming down a small child. I made clicking noises, "shh" noises, smacking my lips. The small girl did calm down. Point is, as a guy, I can calm a little girl down by being chill myself. That tennis ball to this girl's cheek looked like a really hard hit. That's sort of the role of a gentleman. "Gentleness" even in times of discomfort.
Oh yeah, these guys have some serious power in them. I've never been hit in the face by a tennis ball, but footballs(soccer) hurt like hell even when it's just teenagers kicking them. Especially in winter lol, getting hit by a football in near freezing temperatures stings like hell. And tbh tennis balls are prob a little bit harder than footballs, though the impact is less powerful. Props to her though, as you said she held it together well.
*What a beautiful story! A curiosity that few people know about it. The next day, Nadal asked the girl's mother to bring her to take a picture with him. The mother came and threatened to sue Nadal for assault against minors. Nadal wrote a check for $100,000 to the little girl and they all posed for a beautiful photo that was published in many newspapers. Nadal is such a nice guy.*
@huzidamasta there's always somebody out trolling. Perhaps you didn't notice I said it BARELY phased her. Using the word BARELY means that she was OBVIOUSLY somewhat phased, but shook it off. Perhaps you would benefit from an adult learning annex. Maybe something involving reading comprehension!
@jeffwenberg4321 OK so my tone/inflexion wasn't clear, my bad. Maybe I could've worded it differently. What I meant was, it phased her A LOT, but she put on a brave face. Speaking of lessons, I absolutely agree that language is important. I've taken accountability for maybe not getting my message across effectively, but I think the lesson of not being rude and patronising is of a much higher value. I'm just giving you my opinion. I'm not here for conflict. Just because I disagree with you, that doesn't mean I'm a troll and in reality, if you look at my comment and then yours, you're the one that comes across as unpleasant. I'd say there's things we both need to work on.
I've read the comment below, but I was going to say that I bet He didn't just leave it like that. I bet He sent Her lots of fan stuff to apologise. He's a nice guy and would have been put out by this mistake.
Dayum, when the shock wears off, that is going to sting so bad! She needs to get ice on it asap or its going to swell like a balloon. They should really be taking the ballgirl off and getting her seated with ice...

One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my 67 years. She is so precious. God Bless you Rafael
lol you need to get out more
He did not ask for her permission to kiss her. He should be in prison for this.
@@michaelpark5681 You should be in prison for stupidity
@@michaelpark5681 ok dude
Fun fact! Nadal is an atheist. Not everyone believes in the invisible man in the sky. Believing stuff like that has caused a lot of harm.
The way her body moved after the hit and the way she held it in and went with the punches was AMAZING
Linda atitude do Nadal, super humilde e a garota é linda e abençoada!
Omg. That hurt me. I like how both players were making sure she was okay
Sweet moment ❤️
Absolute gent
the other girls were thinking "now hit me, now hit me"

Respect to young brave lady
That's why people love Rafa. Kudos to the ball girl.
Nadal sempre humilde e humano e a garotinha é muito linda e não perdeu a postura em nenhum momento!
Не важно кто ты звезда или простой человек надо оставатся человеком в любой ситуаций 😢
Cheering for a ball girl is so wholesome 😊
Thank you Nadel!
A real gentleman!
‘If Raf had kissed me I’d have been flushed.’
‘Hey this is no time for humour.’ 😂😂😂😂
So miss Rafael,,, what a gent.
That definitely hurt her. If you look closely, her eyes are a little bit wet. She held herself together, but that return *had* to hurt like hell.

Eyes will react that way even when not hurt. Maybe it did hurt her, but I think it was more shock than damage.
Top bloke! El mejor! 👍👍
Rafa is such a nice guy. The ball must of hurt. She took it like a pro. Good kid.
Justo hoy se cumplen 4 años !!!!
Well done gentlemen !
Class act! Love this!
Truly adorable.
Her heart must pumping out loud at the moment
Oh my goodness that’s adorable.
He is a class act.
She's got a great smile.
何回みてもいいね！
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. I can't tell if her face was red from the ball or from the blush. Probably both.
What an awesome thing!
It is so simple to implement some kind of net to protect them
Respect❤
So human.
Tennis is a game that requires hand strength and agility
Extraordinary❤ Magnificent😊
girl was very rich in heart & true she proved ilike her god bless u kind girl ever

there was 0 need for music to be added to this. god, how incredibly obnoxious.
Class act from Nadal and the girl was brave. Many modern footballers would be rolling on the floor 😅
Respect and to the girl considering the speed of most of them shots travel at 100mph glad she was ok
Well, it wasn't a serve, just a flubbed return.
That's 160 km/h, in case the rest of the world was wondering.
How sweet, and she got a kiss!! She'll probably never wash that cheek again!
It would be good if a lightweight protective helmet was designed for those who collect the balls .
Man, she's one tough kid. That barely phased her.
It phased her, she just held it together. It definitely must've phased her.

Nadal is the hero we need, not the one we deserve.
Thank God this was not something somebody would be smudge as "Nadal trying to take advantage of a little girl and kissing her" or some BS like that.
Ball hit her in face. Left a red mark, but she be fine.
In the thumbnail the gal kinda looks like Alyson Hannigan
Poor kid, that hit hard.

What a beat in video?

he should have spitted on her ugly face
Beautiful moment... but where is the left screaming SA?
He is a decent guy
😅 Menos mal que eso no pasó aquí en España porque sino habrían denunciado por acoso a Nadal.
If she become professional tennis player what a Rafa effects
Did the commentator said wow
That hand he put on her neck is the same one he's always pickin his butt with. 🤣
Girls like it
it's okay because he's handsome
The guy in pink needs to practice more
Classy
