5 Times Rafa Nadal Went GOD MODE On Clay ⚡️ 

That 2010 Monte Carlo was one of, if not the most dominant tournament a player has ever played. I remember Nadal winning a lot of 6-0s and 6-1s. Every match was so short

So in 2012, 25 years old, he won Monte Carlo for the 8th time. Mindblowing!

I've rarely felt as bad for a player than Verdasco at 2010 Monte Carlo. He honestly played great and still got absolutely bulldozed. Love the point where he's thanking the heavens that he finally won one lol.

God Mode against the other 2 GOATs. It's just incredible how great he is. I wish he never retires

Amazing how in 2012 we were already talking about his supremacy, and "owning" tournaments, and 10 years after he is still winning and looking almost unbeatable.

That match against Verdasco was pure gem from Rafa. Verdasco’s play in that match was good enough to beat any player on tour except…

Nadal on clay it's easily the highest level of tennis EVER!!!

That run and chase from Rafa at 11:21. I mean his pace at that time when he was a teenager and growing, he was lightening fast don't think anyone come close to him in this aspect. We see today a teenager Alcaraz chases almost every ball and has a great speed but compare it with this teenage Rafa in this video I don't think Alcaraz comes near Rafa. Are you agreed with me?

Nadal vs Novak in 2007. I was 15. Brings back lot of school memories.

The dude won the French open at 36 with a dead leg, that should tell you enough.

In 2010 Monte Carlo Masters, Nadal lost only 14 games throughout the whole tournament.

Back in those days....he was dominant as hell on clay....no one had a fucking answer to his game.....and decade later with only 70% of his peak ability he is still beating down players....

Greatest passing shooter of all time

Rafa will relive this tennis skills and cleverness for his coming game vs. Zverev…Come on, Rafa. You’re the BEST!

He always goes god mode lol

5 times, I’m pretty sure he’s always in God mode when he plays on clay

I wish he never retires

Nadal gonna win his 14th RG Title don't see anyone stopping him

Amazing. I wish I watched him sooner in his career.

Honored to bee alive, to witness and present for truly a humble PROFESSIONAL man. TENNIS world will never have another, let alone any other sport.

Rafael Nadal has the same amount of Roland Garros singles titles as every other active ATP and WTA player combined. Ok. What?

2017 RG final vs Wawrinka is the best player I have ever watched playing tennis

I'd have had 2008 French final, 2019 Rome final and 2020 French final in there.

The amazing thing is... Rafa is well past his best (especially on clay) but he's still winning Roland Garros! It's quite amazing watching back his peak days, he was literally unbeatable.

2012 Monte Carlo win was the biggest in terms of value

I guarantee 100% & confidence on Sunday Final 🇪🇸 GOATdal (Nadal) the Beast will lift up the trophy 👑 the 2022 French open champion for the record 15th time in history all the way and Rafa 22nd major champion is still coming soon in advance 💪!!! Mark my word and Vamos Rafa!!! Warriors and Cheers to a Spanish Bull!!! 🇪🇸🏆🐐

After watching this VDO, I fully agree with the word GOD mode ! Jesus

Guys you deserve around 10M subs! Soon 1M!!!! Cmon!

I respect nole and federer but on clay rafa is miles ahead 🐐🐐🐐. How on earth he is so good on clay 😮😮😮😮😮. Also lets be honest no one hits the ball better than nadal

Hamburg 2008 contra novak fue uno de los mejores partidos que vi ese les falto

Me emocionei de ver o nadal superar mais uma vez o seus limites contra o djoko. Inacreditável.

Those shorts were CRIMINAL

Fantastic player and a great talent !

Verdasco was on the verge of, "No mas."

Rafa’s speed and ability to generate spin has declined by far. He is still a monster on clay now but back then? Zeus.

Only 5? 😎

On Clay, Rafa doesn’t know any other mode. He is the God of Clay.

You should add the 2022 rg final

God of Clay…

3/4 pants nadal was fireeeeee🔥

GOAT

He was fast

Thirteen minutes of reasons why Rafa is known as the "King of Clay"! 🎾🎾

MC 2010, lost only 14 games and won Tourney vs Verdasco.

This God mode lasted for more than a decade!

it took Djoker until 2011 to beat Rafa on clay.

2008 Roland Garros final is the best performance on clay, against the G.O.A.T., only Nadal could do that.... nobody else could. He also won that one without dropping a single set.

Verdasco wasn't playing bad that day.

hes no god, he's a legend

Nadal never gives up. The Spanish Bull. The King Of Clay.

WOW!!!, Nadal is probably the God of tennis incarnated in a human.

12:30 Gaudio bro you don't slice to Nadal's forehand on breakpoint on slow clay. Say goodbye :)

Gaudio to his grandchildren - I beat Nadal one set one set on Clay.

Always hated that Djokovic's grin when being demolished. It felt always like discrediting and disrespectful

ALL HAIL THE GOAT 🐐

The GOD OF CLAY..

6:22 6:44 Only king can do this

And Roland garros not included in this otherwise there will be a movie on how many times he went god mode there .. 😂😊

You mean he isn't in God Mode always ?

Great job goat! You and Novak are invincible

Serving set doesn’t exist when you face nadal on clay

Verdasco did very little wrong in 2010 Monte Carlo. Just came up against Nadal at his absolute best.

i just needed to reply this point many times to understand what happened here 4:00

👍🏽👍🏽

11:20

Sad truth: ATP only rememberes Nadal's greatness when he beats Djokovic, which ATP can't swallow. Sad truth: No extended highlights of any ATP match lost by Djokovic, eg. vs Alcarz Madrid, Berdych Rome13, Verdasco Rome10. Sad truth: ATP will skip Novak losing to Tsitsipas at Toronto 18, Medvedev 19@ Cincinatti, RBA at Shanghai 16, Querrey Paris 12, and many more. Sad truth: ATP will keep posting Nadal losses, whether he is playing or not, no matter what event it is.

First

2010 Rafa made Clay Slam (Monte Carlo Masters, Madrid Masters, Roma Masters, RG). Huge achievement no doubt. But if we would talk about maxing it, then Clay Slam could be: winning: (basing on 2023 ATP Tour:) Córdoba 250 Buenos Aires 250 Rio de Janeiro 500 Marrakesh 250 Monte Carlo Masters Barcelona 500 Madrid Masters Roma Masters RG Gstaad 250 Hamburg 500 Kitzbühel 250 (12 titles! 7 750 points! from this events!) (Nole was ATP No. 1 player in 2023 April 24 having 7 135 points, so You could be No. 1 player by participating only on clay, no Australia in January, no play after Kitzbühel...!!!!!) (with added luck (rivals walkovers and injuries after beginning of matches) You could win also Chile 250 Geneva 250) next level would be winning them without losing a set, then next level: without tiebreaks played next: sets maximum 6-4 next: sets maximum 6-3 next: sets maximum 6-2 next: sets maximum 6-1 next: 6-0 all sets next: all sets - golden sets next: improving time of victories.

In our Hindu culture we have three main Gods Brahma Vishnu Mahesh....for me Federer, Djokovic n Nadal are Brahma Vishnu n Mahesh of Tennis!!

Djokovic will win Wimbledon,US open And AO! Cry Nadal! 😭

Only 5 times.
