totally agree! He's such a good role model for everyone. I was a huge Fed fan growing up and it bothered me that Nadal kept beating him on clay and then on hard courts and grass. Now I see Nadal for what he is - a tennis legend.

@@jadenw-d5562 Novak has made himself the most complete all court player in history.. beating Nadal twice at the French is out of this world, and Novak plays that well or better on all surfaces. In all of Nadal's 3 losses at the French he was partly injured though. He has never lost there when he's fully fit. Most dominant player on a single surface that there is.

@@SJ-di5zu Yeah but it was undermined by the fact Nadal was injured and then took the rest of the season and 6 months off from the tour due to that injury. That’s what sucks at times. It’s like when someone beats Novak but then it’s because he has an elbow injury or was sick. Doesn’t feel like a real win. But it is regardless.

If Thiem was in any other era I really think he could have had 4 or 5 slams. Nadal Federer and Djoker were just from another planet. Really puts into perspective how good Wawrinka and Murray were.

I don't think it would have mattered because it was his injuries that let him down after reaching the peak, In my opinion if he plays the game with accordance to his injuries he could be at the top again but he would have to change his game style by a lot which will affect his current position too.

It doesn’t matter. They have 14 pictures to shuffle between.

To play against Nadal at Roland Garros is like to activate God mode in a tennis videogame.

My opinion about Nadal's 2018 season is this: it was one of the best years of Rafael Nadal in terms of his game and his overall completeness, ruined only by two injuries that forced him to break twice. He has had the highest percentage of winning matches (almost 92%) and he showed the most aggressive tennis game of his life, especially in Wimbledon, which was his best grass tournament played by him, even if he didn't win it (biggest regret for me as his fan). Roland Garros was absolutely great.

2018 season genuinely could’ve been one of Rafa’s best seasons of his career if not for his health. So unlucky to get injured at both hard court slams. At AO, Roger wasn’t playing that well, and I think Rafa could’ve beaten him in the final. As for USO, the match against Djokovic would’ve been 50/50, but Nadal’s draw was horrible. Djokovic cruised to the final without playing anyone good, while Nadal struggled through Thiem, Khachanov, and Del Potro. People always say Nadal’s 2017 draw was weak, but Djokovic’s 2018 draw was just as weak if not weaker. And yeah that Wimbledon SF was a heartbreaker. I think the third set tiebreak was the big chance he bottled, but also that passing shot by Novak deep in the fifth set when Rafa had break point, I forget exactly which game but he would’ve served for the match.

Nadal's footwork shaping up for the huge forehand down the line at 9:50 is just unbelievable. Even past his prime, plays like this show you why he's a deserved 14 time champion.

@SJ-di5zu

When people ask what makes up Nadal’s success, obviously there’s a lot of answers. But I notice a lot of people gravitate towards his defense, or his speed. No. It’s his footwork and his forehand, both he’s arguably the GOAT at. He can run around any backhand and hit a forehand anywhere on the court, and his forehand is one of the scariest shots in tennis history. His speed helps a lot in that he’s able to recover out of his backhand corner very well, and his backhand is very reliable which discourages opponents from using the “hit to his backhand” strategy, so those things help a lot, but Nadal’s forehand and footwork are everything. His game is built around it. He hits serves to set up the forehand.

This was needed.. release all the finals of Nadal 😮‍💨

I remember watching this match live. In the third set, when Rafa started having problems with his left hand fingers, I thought of it as an injury and was literally like "oh god please no! Only 4 games left to win the before the championship is ours. No injury please!" 😅

The crazy thing is this is Nadal at max 60-70% at his A game right now. And he still look unplayable

9:50 No one ever can move like that, what a tremendous footwork He Is dancing on that CLAY!
