The day he retires will be a sad day for Tennis. I have never loved a player more. He's a gentleman, on and off the courts. Gives back to his community, and is truly thankful for everything he earns.
but it is true...he is indeed a specimen of perfection... and he is not even in the body-glamour industry where people give an arm and leg to look shapely etc... this kid is a natural...his sport seems to take care of his physique...no...? :-)
@@alexman4830 I think the best is the one against Verdasco in AO09 that he ended with that incredible forehand. Just an incredible rally in an insane match. Imo, that was the best match of that tournament, better than even the final. My favorite point is the one against roger Federer in Wimbledon 08 in the fifth set that made it 7-7. Not filled with crazy circus shots or dead runs, but it was just brilliant shot making in a moment of extreme pressure.
I´ve been watching vids about Rafa for a few days now. I always find myself having a smile on me while watching him. He is humble, sincere, an example of sportsmanship and one of the best of all time.
I wouldn’t say scared. Rafa is a bit OCD, bottles should be perfectly aligned with labels facing the court. The ball kid took care to make sure he got it right.
@@natka9876 No OCD though. All athletes have their own routines when on court. His family and Rafa himself have mentioned how far from being such a meticulous guy he is out of the court.
@@minyrar7107 Then his OCD only comes out on the court. Even when it’s detrimental like getting a time violation or having to rush his first serve, he still can’t stop himself from going through his routine.
Rafa is just tooooo cute 😍😍😍😍 I've never seen a guy who is so nice, humble, sweet and pure of heart as him 💜 Te quiero mucho 💚 #RafaelNadal #TheKingOfClay
I always remember this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--RYiJAmrTUU.html it was so funny (Rafa started speaking in English while he was in Chile, then Nalbandian told him "decilo en espanol boludo")
Thank you Vamos Rafa for posting this wonderfully delightful collection of video clips. I enjoyed it immensely. And of course I came away once again with the realization that I don't think anyone in tennis is as down to earth, unaffected, authentic and just incredibly humble as Rafa. The thing that always amazed me about Rafa is that he spent a large part of his early career always playing second fiddle to Roger ( both in losing in finals, other than RG, and also in the media) and he always handled it with such poise and grace. He was in the spotlight for a while as number one and then Djokovic came along-through it all he continues to remain just such a nice person. He has added just so much to the tennis world.
it amazes me too how/why Rafa contented himself being no2 to federer... despite the way he would crush him in RG...and poor chap was unable to quell Djokovic... very sad...
Oh! goodness he says he loves the shouts that people give him... and the girls' whistles... give him a great feeling... what a lovely chap he is... so honest about his inner self... so positive about his experiences... people get so whiny if someone with a mic asks them questions about a different experience or their difficult situations... this kid goes ga ga about everything that the game does to him or the people do to him...he never complains to the press-wallas...Rafa is such a different sort of celebrity... gives a lesson to those old men who are asking him these idiotic questions... they all hide their feelings and store their secrets away... whereas Rafa opens his heart... I have never heard a star type speak so openly...amazing... unbelievable...
@@mosart7025 yeah...may be in his word...but from 5:07 to 6:45 Rafa looks amazingly great... unusually good looking sportsman... no wonder the girls whistle after him...tough to watch him age these days...
Reporter: "is it possible that this year Roger Federer would win Roland Garros but Rafa would win Wimbledon?" RN: "If you have any paper I can sign......I'm gonna sign."
Nadal is The best player who ever lived!! More heart and grit than any other!! " I dont want to be his boyfriend" he said about Roger after rediculous question. LOL.
Rafa is not only the most adorable, 💖 likeable athlete, but man too ! And young #rafa was just about the cutest sexiest on this earth 🌏 No other athlete comes close to the love and passion I have for this man ! 🌟💥☄️💪👑🥇🐃❤️💚💙💖
Wow, Rafa is a gentleman !!! He is raised by his parents in a true gentle manner. This is a rarity nowadays when most people are arrogant especially those who are rich and famous. They have no feelings to those underneath them. Rafael most charitable young athletic guy I have seen in sports and elsewhere, maybe? I am sure the family is God-fearing and God oriented. Thank you Spain for spreading the true Religion of His Majesty Our Lord and King Jesus Christ. May God bless you.
@@Nina-oi1qk but they can till be respectful of a larger power...a greater being...i think they are thats why they have turned out a level headed honest winner like rafa...
