No shame in this loss for Rafa. He was only 16!!! If anything Puerta should not have been celebrating his victory, but scared that he almost lost to a 16 year old. True this 16 year old would go on to be one of the greatest ever, but still, he was technically only a boy...

Wow. It's abundantly clear just how gifted Nadal was at 16. He hit the ball damned hard even then. Although his style is very different from Federer's, he's no less talented. Based on this performance alone, I'm not surprised that he wound up winning 20 majors. In fact, I don't recall seeing ANY 16 year old male playing this well. Some awesome drop shots here also - which shows that Nadal, even at 16, knew a thing or 2 about finesse and delicacy.

I just checked on the ATP site, that is definitely the Aix en Provence challenger. there seem to be a LOT of people in the crowd for a challenger though
ha ha good observation... i think he celebrated out of relief... the kid was giving him too much trouble... really what a phenomenon Rafa was in his late teens and early through mid 20s... djokovic was lurking in the shadows all the time - he was there in the 2006 FO too...but he was not able to move the force called RafaNadal... surprisingly he managed to cut through both rafa and Fed in the next decade... was it only by change of diet... unbelievable...seems too good to be true...
Pas mauvais ce jeune Nadal, je pense qu'il peut à l'avenir briller surtout sur terre-battue et gagner quelques grands tournois sur toutes les surfaces ! A suivre...
Un chaval de 16 años poniendo en serios apuros a todo un jugador de los buenos en su mejor momento. Y dejaba asomar lo que ha llegado a ser, un grandisímo Campeón y cuando en un par de meses va a hacer 36 años todavía no ha dicho su última palabra, sí le dejan las lesiones seguro que la dira.
Amazing to see that he has not changed at all...so casual when he gets that prize from who ever was handing it to him... arguably the best teenager in any sport...
Nadal entered the professional level really early, and naturally he started as the whipping boy for the more experienced and accomplished players. But because of his mountainous determination and drive, he kept persevering and established for himself an indomitable mindset. I think this is what has truly set him apart in the years that have followed.
And people saying Alcaraz is better than him at the same age and don't mind checking out for themselves who Rafa was at the same age. He was already doing amazing dropshots, the invention of which is now attributed to Alcaraz. Ignorance is a great flaw!!! So here, Rafa left the challenger to Puerta because he preferred Roland Garros 😂
I think I asked this when you uploaded it before, but have there been any other instances where Challenger finalists have also met in a slam a few years later?
@@sLlorcaTV definitely can find instances if you follow Mackie McDonald’s progress or Tiafoe or Borna Coric. A ton of top 100 players especially the younger ones have been active on challengers in the last 2 years. Dan Evans rise back to top 100 after drug ban comes to mind also. Jaume Muñar isn’t far off from challengers either.
@@sLlorcaTV Grand slams are kind of challengers but only for the BIG 3 ..as they keep challenging each other for GOAT, most GS, most career prize money, most no of weeks as No1, most no of weeks in top 10, etc etc
I have the feeling that Rafa should go back and watch these matches again and be inspired and refreshed. And restarts with ease on a new journey at 20 GS for others to play catch-up. Jaiyou! Rafa.
@@smashthestateX Do you even play tennis? That’s like saying 16 years old Federer is more difficult to beat than 35 years old Federer. That’s just silly.
