@@JP-fr6bv Nobody cares about Djokovic on this page. It is a discussion about Nadal's press conference, no need to bring your insecurity about your idol here.
I preferred Kyrgios’s press conference. The guy wears his heart on his sleeve. It was entertaining. These guys are at the end of the day entertainers. Thant’s why we watch.
Nadal is just a art of tennis. I loved how he played so mature and like a champion against kygrios. It was like come on try to punch me and look what happens then. He just smashed him all over the place. Nadal is the reason I watch sport. He stayed so so calm and mature and professional when kygrios started with his crazy stuff🔥
LOL at least he is the most respectful player on the tour I don’t care about his rituals. He is not unfair he is the opposite the opponents are the problem becuaze they can’t beat him becuaze he is the best
@:D Lol, Rafas sportsmanship is an example to everyone, even to Federer. Especially Kyrgios could take a huge piece of it, he needs it the most. Everything what he said about Novak and Rafa is superficial and just shows that he is the one who wants all attention. Its just sad...
:D Who cares dude? He’s giving both players a break. He’s allowed to do whatever pace he wants as long as the umpire doesn’t give him a violation. What if he complained Nick was going too fast? Why is fast better than slow?
The way u dealt with the whole situation inside and outside the court is definitely something to admire and to look for. as tennis fans we enjoy every single moment of u being in the court doing what u do best vamos rafa
Anybody else notice he only said "Nick" once throughout the interview. It was he, him, second round opponent... Congratulations Rafa. Today, the best man won.👏👍👏
For those who didnt catch what rafa said in spanish. He basically said its not good to keep giving kyrgios so much attention as it feeds his attitude. He labelled him "a boy gone astray" and that its not good for him to keep getting talked about.
Really funny. The one who has never won a Grand Slam being cocky and sometimes disrecpectful (not towards women at least) and the 18th times Grand Slam Champion still open and willing to answer every question, super honest but always with grace and respect to other human beings.
Rafa is just a classy guy. Kyrgios is trash and has respect for nothing or no one. His parents should be ashamed; must have forgotten to teach him manners. I think Kyrgios thinks it’s cool to be brash and disrespectful; total loser.
@@leahdorothy What he has done? ok for starters : couple years ago in a middle of a doubles match against wawrinka, kyrgios asked wawrinka that if he knew that his girlfriend (tennis player donna vekic) slept with his doubles partner ....for all to hear!! …. he's a piece of trash ….. I dont expect tennis players to be angels ..I was a huge McEnroe tennis fan but he was a champion .....this clown hasn't won anything for him to have this big ego
I love his positivity! I’ve been watching Rafa forever and this is an enduring aspect of him! Watching Nick Kyrgios’ press conference there was so much eye rolling and sarcasm
I really don't thank Nadal thought this year "If I spend some more time doing weights I might win the French again." More like "I will spend some more time doing weights so that I have the best chance possible of winning the French"
No one is more professional than this man, in any sport. Sachin, Schumacher, Federer, they come close but this guy is so relentless at it. I've personally never seen anything like it from when I first saw him at Wimbledon in 07 to now, it's astonishing how well he has and still is applying himself. His commitment to anything he participates in is so difficult to maintain yet that's become his day in/day out routine. How? Just thinking about doing it feels impossible lol.
Especially when a reporter told him that somebody who speaks Spanish read his lips during the match and caught him saying “pendejo” e “hijo de puta”. Nadal said that “pendejo” is Argentinian. I would say it is more from the Americas definitely. As for “Hijo de Puta”, there are a couple of videos of Nadal playing video games where he screams “hijo de puta”-of course it is a complete different environment. I love his answer to that “question” though.
I'm not able to understand if Rafa is better as tennis player than human being. This is undoubtedly a gentleman in sports and life and probably the best sportsman in Spain ever.
Rafael Nadal is my hero. Absolutely calm and kind gentleman even though Kyrgios was kicking off swearing and screaming insults. He is an excellent role model to other tennis players and the fans. I want him to win Wimbledon for the first time since 2010.
As an Australian I am ashamed for Kyrgios - so childish and unprofessional. Rafa is the reason I began watching tennis years ago and he never disappoints.
Agree. Absolutely inappropriate using those words in a press conference and accusing Nadal directly of saying them. I am surprised Nadal didn't react angrily
@@novemberjam on top of that he doesn't have the foggiest idea of the Spanish language. Pendejo is a word we never use in Spain. A pathetic waste of space to sum up.

Great win for Nadal and sweet revenge for 5 years ago. To beat Kyrgios in 2 tiebreaks on grass when he'd lost all 5 previous tiebreaks against him is a really big boost for his confidence. Overall he served pretty well too, especially in the 3rd and 4th sets and that's very important. Vamos Rafa!
I have been a fan of Nadal ever since he first won Rolland Garos and watching him all these years I must say he matured a lot and it's showing in his game as well.
Nadal says in Spanish that Kyrgios is not a "mal chico", a bad man, but that he has "perdido un pouito el camino...", i.e., lost his way... absolutely well said.
min. 10:45 "We know what, the more we talk about this guy (chico) ...I don't believe it's a good idea...the thing is we are encouraging him to do it again...strange, weird things...if we keep talking about him , and if ATP supports him all the way ...well, thing is ...he will keep believing (he's something he's not) ...I believe he's a great talent, talent should be supported but there are many other things that it shouldn't be supported ...that's a fact...I don't care if he wanted to hit me or not, he can do as he pleases...another thing is to say it's correct ...sometimes what's correct for someone is not to correct for someone else ...ethics sometimes are not clear...it's not correct according my beliefs but might be ok according to his ...maybe his ethics are different from most players...I don't think he's a bad guy but he's in the wrong path and he should do something about it, it would be good for his career.
This has to be one of the best conference I’ve watched so far! All of Rafa’s answers are just of another world. Such great answers to some questionable questions. Just one of the other reason why I love Rafa so much!
@4browsing well bad for Cilic, but The public like match that are very intense 🙈. I from Nicaragua and i saw Nasal when i was 13 and always says that Nadal is one only men that can play very diferent all The rest
@Joe Ann well for me to, like Rafa say. The ATP need change some rules, and they know but i dont know always do something with federer he is great player but is The nunber 3 Of The world
Joe Ann Wimbledon has been using that formula for its seeding for years, it’s nothing new. Rafa has made 1 grass court final in the last 8 years, an ATP 250 in 2015. Roger’s made 13 grass court finals in the same amount of time. It makes sense he’s seeded higher.
sasook i know but just imagine if RG used the same system. roger would‘ve been unseeded and could have played very early against nadal or djokovic. its so stupid.
Some statements from the part in Spanish: He is questioned about Kyrgios again and he said: "Why is this kind of player promoted that much? Media, ATP... The more we talk about him, the more he's going to continue behaving like this." "He is a very talented guy, he could be a serious candidate for the top5 of the ranking, but he would need to change his mindset. GOOD FOR US IF HE KEEPS DOING LIKE THIS."
After if, if, if. Then Nadal states that Nick doesnt have love n passion for tennis, discipline n respect for own his talent. Nadal states all these in very wise n educated n cultured ways.
Well, it at least gave him an opportunity to endorse a watch he truly loves hehe. However, I believe Wawrinka also always plays with a watch which makes the reporter’s question even more silly.
7:36 what an incredible answer to such a stupid question from the journalist. He managed to spin it into an insightful answer and give praise to his sponsor. Intelligent and classy response.
Such a humble and professional guy! Rafa is a great ambassador for the sport. He deserves to win Wimbledon! Hoping and praying for his good health and all the luck from the heavens as well. No one deserves it more than him. He exudes kindness and respect and has the strongest moral compass I have ever witnessed.
Kyrgios is a coward. He made sure he was seen by reporters at the pub last night so he could have an excuse ready. He acts like he can’t be bothered to really try, but that’s just because he’s too scared to give his best effort and see where he stands. He’d rather pretend he’s beating himself by not caring and not trying than to risk trying his hardest and getting well and truly bested. He has no guts at all.
I can listen to him all day! He speaks so well about tennis and about life. I feel blessed whenever I hear his positive insights about everything. Everyone should learn from him!
Nadal is such a humble sportsman who enjoys victory with humility while remaining respectful of his opponents. Nick said alot of negative things about Nadal unlikely behaviour in such a sport.
”If if if it doesn’t exist” is not just my favorite quote by Nadal but one of my my favorite sport quotes ever. I am so sick and tired of hearing sport journalists and fans saying stuff like: ”but IF THAT hadn’t happened”.
“If if if it doesn’t exist”; how could they EVER compare Mr. Rafael Nadal, with such respect for the game, to that spoiled, tempered, impulsive player that is Kyrgios
He is such an intelligent guy to go along with being one of the greatest of all time..Thatswhy I love him sooo much..A role model and an inspiration..One love.Nadal.. ❤❤❤
Rafael Nadal has depth; he may not be very fluent in English but his answers were remarkable, considering the quality of the questions from not so outstanding reporters.
Rafa is a CLASS act....purely in it for tennis not money..he has money because he has won everything there is to win....he competes because he loves the game......amazing person....Vamos Rafa
I'm obsessed with how well Nadal shuts down the reporter at 4:59. (1) Politely interrupt (2) Shut down the stupid attempt at creating a controversy (3) With a smile on his face, explain why the reporter's full of crap (4) Still let the guy ask a question and give a good answer. All in his third language.
Even there body language is so different. Nick slouches with his arms crossed while Rafa has a straight back arms neatly on his lap. Really shows who’s serious.
Im a professional tennis player, and pretty much every answer of Rafa was delightfully true and little shading but the Spanish spice is there for all to enjoy!
Love how Rafa lights up at 8:34 while talking about his personal relationship with Richard Mille. That was a nice moment and a good change after all these talk about Nick and what happened on court.
Rafa is such a class act and great professional.
Agreed.

Rafa is a CLASS act....purely in it for tennis not money..he has money because he has won everything there is to win....he competes because he loves the game......amazing person....Vamos Rafa
Fanny Craddock Agreed. Nick is a showman while Rafa is a champion.
I'm obsessed with how well Nadal shuts down the reporter at 4:59. (1) Politely interrupt (2) Shut down the stupid attempt at creating a controversy (3) With a smile on his face, explain why the reporter's full of crap (4) Still let the guy ask a question and give a good answer. All in his third language.
but that question was downright indecent...crossing all limits...even worse that kyrgios and other young oz tennistas
6:00. Legend has it that Djokovic became a big fan of Nadal after this.
The answers in Spanish are PERFECT. Shade with class.
And the questions to english reported pendejo or hijoputa is a shame.
I love that Rafa is giving much more in depth answers within his English questions! He has a wealth of knowledge in him of the sport.
Even there body language is so different. Nick slouches with his arms crossed while Rafa has a straight back arms neatly on his lap. Really shows who’s serious.
Grande Rafa, un ejemplo de trabajo y superación para todos
Such a professional after playing such a lunatic.💝👏🏿💪🏿
Pure class, even when having to play such a slimeball like Nick. VAMOS.
Intelligent human being this gentleman...i love Nadal good luck go and beat Tsonga
I so wish Nadal reaches the final and wins it! VAMOS RAFA
Rafa and Roger and their like are quite simply different class - the operative word being, class
Im a professional tennis player, and pretty much every answer of Rafa was delightfully true and little shading but the Spanish spice is there for all to enjoy!
U are?
Love how Rafa lights up at 8:34 while talking about his personal relationship with Richard Mille. That was a nice moment and a good change after all these talk about Nick and what happened on court.
An absolute class act !
3:15 for the greatest quote in the history of sport.
