One of the most incredible things about it is the unity around him. He always says "we won", "we made it", "what we achieve". I think that's the explanation of his great strenght. He was never playing alone, he was a family fighting together. So inspiring.

@likuidtalent4818 3 года назад

beautiful!

@HelgaCavoli 3 года назад

His brother, his friend too. They all saying "we this, we that..". Isn't that a huge lesson! A group effort, a group recognition, a group mentality. A group victory. Did it start with they mom saying "We must be tighter now, it's a full on family pact of connection"? 'Cos then it grew. Anyway, great great tale of achievements all around.

Quando ele fala "nós", ele se refere também ao povo brasileiro. Nós somos muito patriotas, amamos nossa pátria desde cedo. Recebemos esses ensinamento dos nossos pais, preferimos a morte ao sucumbir à ordenanças externas! Ou ficar a pátria livre ou morrer pelo Brasil!

I was 13. You can be sure, every french were supporting him. He was such a humble and charming guy, and we never wanted him to win the french open so badly. And he won. A joyful moment we all had at this time.

Guga's win was in an era when outsiders could win, and yet even this win was amazing, even for that time. He was ranked 60something and never reached a QF of ANY event before winning RG.

@robertopascarelli6105 4 года назад

Beautiful short documentary. People from other countries must remind that tennis is far away from Brazilians reality. And Guga made every Brazilian get to know tennis and support him, like we all did for Senna some years before. He’s indeed humble and a passionate guy, that’s why all other players always liked Guga.

I’m Brazilian and was born in 1991. I can’t remember Ayrton Senna’s career and he’s probably one of the greatest Brazilian sportsperson. But I do remember Guga Kuerten winning Rolland Garros in 97. He’s my childhood hero, my Senna. And undoubtedly one of the most gifted players to ever step on court. I hope to be alive and se another player so passionate about the game as Guga is.

@danielmedeiros6803 6 лет назад

I think it was Kafelnikov that said prime Kuerten would beat prime Nadal. Kuerten career was quite short due to injuries, so it makes little sense to compare the career numbers of the two - especially when you're talking about each in their primes. Kuerten professionalized in 1995, had 3 french open trophies by 2001 and was out of the ATP rankings by 2008. It's hard to say who would win, but Kuerten was as good as anyone during his prime.

@jambrador 4 года назад

The difference is that Kuerten beat Munster, Kafelnikov, Brugera, Medvedev, Safin all this guys were Federer, Djokovic level back then. Search Guga x Feder and you will have an Idea what would have happened with Nadal.

@al1976-v7m Год назад

At first i found him a little funny to look at and as a Muster fan, i was hoping he couldn't keep up his level of play against Thomas. Boy was i wrong! With each game, i grew more enamored with him, and by the time he got to the final i was cheering for him. Recently i even bought his biography, unfortunately not available in English, only Portuguese and French. I think it should be published in English because he is a very popular player worldwide and his story is inspiring.

@geisonmcd 4 года назад
