More than d trophies, it’s the fact that he has kept the SAME TEAM all throughout his career, win or lose. He requires of them only HONESTY, and it truly reflects on him. Such an authentic guy! He seems to be a believer of a life filled w passion yet simple and real, he's competitive yet grounded-his wish for Coco is empathetic and well put. Always Keep it real Rafa! Wish you not just wins on court but off as well! Kudos to ur team!
i can't put my finger on why i adore this tennis player and have from the first time i saw him. he's just extraordinary on and off the court. Vamos Rafa!
Same here. Saw him playing in Monte Carlo when he was 16, and have loved him ever since. Apart from being a great player, he is so normal, respectful of everyone, level headed, just a decent person. His parents obviously instilled this in him, and his family keep him grounded.
Rafa is such an amazing person and amazing tennis player. He's simply the best. It's an absolute privilege to be able to watch him play and support. He's the only reason I watch tennis at all.
@PurelyAfrican Thats great. Waiting is also a measure of love. After all love and life before the marriage are more beautiful than after the marriage. She will be happy for all the 12 or 14 beautiful years.
I hope Rafa wont be more successful after marriage. If he wins AO 2020, right after the marriages people will come up theories like, if Rafa was married 5 or 6 years back, he would have ended with more AOs and More slams.
Love him and his outlook truly the GOAT. It is not about having the greatest tennis style, it is about attitude, positivity and never abandoning those important who helped you along the way.
@juneaug Lok Not for long. Nadal most weeks in the top two: 555+ . Novak will break Federer's record of 310 weeks @#1. Will end the year #1 for a 6th time passing Federer. Nadal can end the year in the top 2 for a 12th time passing Federer. In four weeks Nadal 789 weeks in the top 10 passing Connors.
@@natka9876 what's so annoying about that? I don't understand why do people get pissed off if they are called short? I mean it's just a height. Would people be pissed too if a guy is tall and be called "the tall guy". Grow up! Smh
@Paul Daniel But every time they mention him they bring up his height. There’s other people with different aspects of their physique making them stand out. I don’t hear people say things like “the heaviest player” (that’s a big no, right) or “the skinniest player” (Rublev) and constantly talk about that one aspect. A tall guy doesn’t have the same negative connotation as a short guy does. Obvious
Probably he is the most polite Tennis player. I've watched a lot of interview of him. His view towards society, friendship, and honesty is beyond a sportsman, something I didn't find within any other player of any other sports. His English sucks comparing to Federar, the reason why, to my opinion, most of his soft sides are not well known. But I've closely followed him for a while, and I will put him on top of any other sportsman, probably at the same level of Stephen Curry. I'm following Rafa for 12 long years, and my respect for him is reaching new highs ever since.
I agree. I think he is a deep think and seems really down the earth. He does not let the glam and vanity of the sport deter him from his goals, humbleness and connection to his family.
My favourite part was him helping that boy squeezed in the Crowd. Very humane of him. I pray this gesture grants him the miracle of winning the US open
There is only 1 Rafael Nadal. He is a legend. He is a good sport. He is a GOAT. He is a champion. That's why we want the best for him. Nadal Is My Champion!
Not bad... Rafa...that was almost flawless... :-) :-) he speaks very well now... but that (speaking english) is not at all important for a champ like him... his kind of game is most important...pray that he can be there and challenge the new and the older guys...he deserves more success...the most success of all people in that sport...imagine playing with a faulty foot...
As a man, if I had him as an opponent, I would admire his arms. They look like hammers ready to nail you!! Probably why he went for the sleeveless shirts again. It sure is intimidating..
She is a brilliant interviewer, I watched her doing the on court interviews with Rafa and Medvedev, she is cool and intelligent under pressure and she lets people talk without coming in on them talking.
Exactly she's been on the tour for like a cup of coffee. Oh my god Chris Mchenry and most of the media are soooooo damn desperate to push Coco Gauff . Newsflash..she hasn't accomplished shit!! She got a couple of wins at Wimbledon against players ranked over 100 and got her ass kicked in RD 3 at the Open. She's going to suffer many many losses for the next few years until she builds her game. The other girls/women on tour don't give a shit what her age is. It's embarrassing how desperate they are to push her
@@jamblman no tengo ningún interes en aprender idiomas.Rafael Nadal es Español igual que yo , lo qué creo que la traducción seria lo más logico para todos sus seguidores españoles que no entienda ni pizca de Ingles ¿no vamos aprender Ingles solo para un articulo,cuando se puede traducir perfectamente en mi idioma que es igual o más rico en su dialectico que el Ingles.bye adiós.
Everywhere, it seems like Hispanic males really were impressed with the idea of ROTC and the military. Maybe because of 1) getting more fit and 2) being able to afford travelling (getting away from a rural area).
What hurts about Hispanics looking away from tennis is how my area has those rare handball walls means that there were no financial barriers in order to work at becoming a tennis coach in K-12.
I'm Nadal's fan since many years ago, extraordinary tennis player, notwithstanding his English language is getting worse every day, lousy but understandable.
The problem is Spain in general, and the people's attitude toward foreign languages, specially English. (not saying Nadal is like that). But generally speaking, people in Spain are not very open minded and tend to reject English or anglisisms in their daily lives, and their screwed up education system, even today, does not teach English at an acceptable level to the kids in the schools.. if you want a bilingual education for your kids, start saving to take them to a private school. Also, it's hard to explain, but the Castilian Spanish spoken in Spain, is like an embedded mental straitjacket, and their tongue is like a piece of steel welded to their language. The few people here who "speak" english do it very poorly and with a very strong unpleasant accent.. obviously, due to their economic woes in the last decade, they've had to accept how wrong they've been, as people have had no choice but to migrate, and accept that without English you can't go too far..
@@Nina-oi1qk Indeed! That wasn´t the point. The language of Tennis and the way he communicates with it is magestic. I'm a HUGE Nadal fan. And I think his English is just fine! I was just trying to point out why, generally speaking, it is difficult to find Spaiards who speak a proper English. You see players from other European countries and their English is way better. In that respect (English), Nadal , like most Spaniards, is the result of the poor educational strategy of his native country. And I know what I'm talking about. I'm from Spain, and sent my kids to private schools only for that reason. That´s all.. Sorry for the long commnet again..
The area I'm in now is pretty segregated. The nearby high school basically had 100% of the tennis students and coaches be Asian, and Hispanics would either play 1) football, 2) soccer, or 3) basketball.
HOW COME NADAL DOESN'T GO OUT TO A PROPER ENGLISH SCHOOL TO IMPROVE HIS LOUSY ENGLISH? DOESN'T GIVE A GOOD IMPRESSION. FRANKLY I AM NOT A FAN OF NADAL N FEDERRR. THEY HAVE TOO MUCH EGO.
How come you don't go school to learn that typing in Capitals is rude and equivalent to shouting. and why should he improve his English? It's his third language.
Nadal is my favorite tennis player
Michael Jordan he grew up on Big Macs MJ
Yup!!!
Fake Michael Jordan or the real legend?
me too ..
his my idol..
❤❤❤💪💪💪
Such a beautiful human being!!
All sportsmen should be like him!!!
More than d trophies, it’s the fact that he has kept the SAME TEAM all throughout his career, win or lose. He requires of them only HONESTY, and it truly reflects on him. Such an authentic guy! He seems to be a believer of a life filled w passion yet simple and real, he's competitive yet grounded-his wish for Coco is empathetic and well put. Always Keep it real Rafa! Wish you not just wins on court but off as well! Kudos to ur team!
And in his team half of them are his own family members and the other half he made them his family.
Awwwn! He starts blushing on just the mere mention of the wedding! Too sweet! 😄
I love his loyalty to His people. What a great man.
Well said. Rafa is a great human being and I have never seen anything bad from him
That loyalty shows the character. That is super unique
It is sure loyalty is a Spanish invention. VAMOS RAFA!!!
Just love the man is so sincere,polite,even funny and relaxed.We are all with you cheering always.stay forever.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Smart too.
i can't put my finger on why i adore this tennis player and have from the first time i saw him. he's just extraordinary on and off the court. Vamos Rafa!
I feel the same way. There are really not enough words to describe how much I love and adore Rafa.

Not much involved in the wedding planning but he has been "consulted". ; so cute!! Good luck and much happiness with your Mery , Rafa!!
@PurelyAfrican actually 12 years
Its actually like 14 years.
@PurelyAfrican Thats great. Waiting is also a measure of love. After all love and life before the marriage are more beautiful than after the marriage.

@@gmediagroupss That's one of the stupidest things I've ever read! Why would you write something like this???
Almost flawless in personality. Humbleness n down to earth. Respect for other players n love for kid fans.
It explains why Rafa is so loved by many in the world. Congratulations on his wedding day next month and yeah, so happy for him.
Love him and his outlook truly the GOAT. It is not about having the greatest tennis style, it is about attitude, positivity and never abandoning those important who helped you along the way.
If you hadn’t fallen for Rafa before, you have now!
Rafa the only reason I watch tennis since 2004
Same here 🙃🙃🙃
Rafa is great human being !!!!!!
Rafa is a beautiful person! Humble, polite, down to earth..
Best Wishes Rafa and Mery! 💐
Who is Mery? His girlfriend's name is Xisca.
He is amazing!!...a beautiful human being!!...and a fabulous tennis player!...THE BEST!!
Roger is the man, Novak is the machine and Rafa is God.

789 consecutive weeks
can rewrite to make it Roger is king...the rest is fine :-)
I just agree with and love all your words.
0:56 Loved the short man Diego Schwaztman in the back waving for the camera. Man he's just so fun! 😁😂
Sad he was crushed by Nadal in the quarters🤗
not really crushed!

Why "miracle"? It's not as if he hasn't won it before! This was his 4th victory, hardly a miracle.

When Rafa wears his sleeves shirt, which I absolutely love for him to, he is able to omit one of his steps of his ritual. Win Win for everyone!
❤️ Rafa so much ‼️💪🏽🏆🥇

Go.rafa..win us open
She is a brilliant interviewer, I watched her doing the on court interviews with Rafa and Medvedev, she is cool and intelligent under pressure and she lets people talk without coming in on them talking.
Cute! Rafa and Coco!
Gracias Nadal por tu humildad kirgios debería aprender de ti
Definitely in the discussion for GOAT. His fiancee is absolutely flat out gorgeous also. To the champion, comes all the spoils.
He'll have all the time to be consulted about the last wedding preparations after he wins US Open 😂😜
So true bang on 😂
Very nice
💜
Come on Rafa... Winner In Australia Open & Wimbledon....
This guys gonna be good.
Nadal,Novak and Roger are the Greatest of all time (GOAT)🎾🐐
Those legs!!!

Name: Rafael Nadal Perera
Date of birth: June 3, 1986
Nationality: Hispanic
Sport: Tennis
8:55 Since Federer became no.1 in february 1994...
Nice one, I didnt know he was no.1 for that long
It's 2004 btw, they messed it up by 10 years 😅
i was like “wait wasnt he 13 back then???” jsksjsjsjs
Common Nadal rooting for 19
i have been consulted....but.
I don't understand how he can play so well with all those bandages on his hand. Cool dude though!
He is sitting with towel maybe his shorts were wet , he was interviewed after his practice
Rafa looking bored when they ask about Roger; FFS I am bored , can you imagine his boredom.
man he has easyest way to finals
Vamos
JJaja peque behind jajaja lol, I love him.
And 2019

why is he sitting on a towel?
problem with hemoroids
Just came off practice and did not want to sweat on their sofa I guess.
Wait when did he get engaged??? WTF LOL Knew he had a girlfriend, but i don't remember anyone ever calling her his Fiance...
they were engaged last year in Rome.
