ROGERS MASTERS TENNIS: NADAL INTERVIEW

[iluvmns4eva]

adoooooooooorable!!!! ;)

[KiraxJune]

Rafa you are the Best for ever , a legend an history of tennis ! ;D ♥

[lexuy]

his english is better coz c'mon the guy's folks have an english tutorial center if i'm not mistaken. well, not like he has the time to take the lessons when he's flying around all the time, but he can't stop learning english. hahahaha!

[Jhecks31]

he's learning his english well,bravo rafa

[amazinglyace]

Sometimes I think that it isn't right that someone should be that attractive... and talented... :'(

I wish him every success at Rome.

[glitter0607]

Nadal is the most beautiful Wimbledon winner ever!

[mariomarcano]

Are you crazy? Federer, Edberg and Boris are far more beautiful than Nadal!

[ErinAlexis86]

That eyebrow is fierce, isn't it? Rafa is so cute! His English is immaculate compared to 2005. In other press conferences, when he's asked a question he doesn't really wanna answer, he pretends like he doesn't understand. His English is far better than people think.

[shelleyslater]

Man alive.....Fedders is out of Cinncy!!!!

[shelleyslater]

Frick on a stick.....I was almost proved wrong there.....almost......Robby was awesome, shame he suffered so much after the second set..........

[geeman56]

how delicious is he...?

[shelleyslater]

I am so proud to be a follower of tennis at the moment; With Rafa and his great tennis and genuine personality, with Roger and his game perfection, with Novac and his fab sense of humour, with Andy and his gritty fghing spirit.

These are great days for tennis, and I am so happy to be witnessing every single one of them...............

[ver506]

You're just a bright ray of sunshine, aren't ya???? Now that's a great attitude, looking at the positive side of things. Good for you!!!! I'm team Nadal and i'm sticking to it!!!

[shelleyslater]

Cheers me dears!! I've been in Camp Nadal for 3 years now and I'm finally reaping the rewards, but Roger is magnificent and I have a sneaky suspicion that he'll win in Cincinnati and probably at the US Open, Mr Federer does not take too kindly to young Spanish whippersnappers trying to pinch his throne......and I can't wait to see him try and stop the Rafa Express cos' that train is on fire lol!!!

[ver506]

Agreed. It's not going to be easy to stop Nadal but if anyone can do it, it's Federer. Either way, we'll enjoy some good tennis.

[texasfan58]

lol federer lost and after nadal beats djokovic and murray he'll be # 1 :)

[halli321]

I with you!

[rub3z17]

toronto loves nadal...!!

he will be the #1 seed soon enough..

vamos nadal..!!

[beatrizmartinvidal]

I can't understand the bad manners and anger against Rafa.

He's a tennis player, he wins matches because that's what he has to do. He doesn't beat Federer or whoever because he's evil or because he wants to destroy Roger. I don't think Federer's career is over, but someday it'll happen. And it'll happen to Rafa too. Nobody's eternal. And so? Should we be angry and blame the man who does his best and achieves victory over them?. It can be sad, but it's not a reason to hate him.

[badulaque3]

Tienes toda la razón, sin embargo, todos quieren ver a los representantes de sus respectivos países como únicos ganadores. Aquellos que se interpongan en su camino serán vistos como enemigos. Parece como si todo el mundo quisiera demostrar que "ellos" son los mejores. Los ataques a Rafa no se limitan a su persona sino al país que representa. Rafa en estos momentos es lo mejor que tenemos en el mundo del tenis y un ejemplo para todos, jóvenes y mayores.

[PuccaSubmarina]

i'm sooo happy!

nadal won!!!

=D

he is the best!!!

[CASPER10666]

I think its disgusting that professional tennis players are seen in this light. They have all brought the game to a level which is enticing more and more youngsters into the game. Federer is world class and no one playing today touches his record. Nadal is also a brilliant player, Djoko is very good and Murray is biting at the heels of them all. He has beaten Federer and Djoko and closing in on Nadal. Its a shame you cant appreaciate their skills and can only insult their looks,its disgusting

[badulaque3]

Gutilis, I am not saying that Nadal is a monkey, Nadal at this momment is the strongest mentally and phisically of all tennis players. I was answering to a comment from jamessmedley82.

[gutilis]

badulaque3,i think you are a monkey! nadal reached the final .He is the BEST! Vamos RAFA!!!!!!

[halli321]

He just beat Murray! I'm a Federer fan first, but Nadal is also a player I have supported since 2005 so I love to see him win too!

[jakegorospe]

forgive me fed fans.. but it seems to me fed in his fight against simon..fed looked arrogant, telling a man to shut up, complains a lot and moves like a big headed prick. hate to see what he is becoming, his motions are sarcastic.. i still feel its the ill effects of a drained confidence bank account.its like he still grieving to his wimbledon lost

[Rsutherland8]

Now, now; Federer always displays a great attitude....when he wins...

[vamosomav]

Agree :))

[snappycruise]

where can we see that?

I think its good he's now expressing himself on the court like old times.

[linaspin]

Aaah! Isnt he just so beautiful? Love ya Rafa!!!

[jamessmedley82]

Why does this monkey shrug his shoulders every four or five seconds?

[badulaque3]

Seems to me that you know a lot about monkeys... I bet you have been in a place without sunlight, probably a cage, eating fish and chips and peanuts most of your life.

[jamessmedley82]

He just looks like a monkey to me,with that big shiny nose,that's all.Presumably that's because of the Arab Moors DNA that most of your countrymen carry in their bloodstream. And yes,I rarely see sunlight,but no,I hate fish and chips.

[badulaque3]

It looks to me that your are a fat, monolingual loser full of envy.

[jamessmedley82]

Monolingual loser full of envy? Absolutely! Fat? Hardly!

[Rsutherland8]

I take great joy in the thought of you anti-Nadal people seething as he wins and wins; not just clay, but grass hard courts as well. Murray acted like a brat regarding some of the calls (that proved not to be in his favor) in the Toronto semi. Chalk up yet another bad loser. Insult Nadal all you like. Your bile cannot take away his results.

[jamessmedley82]

Nadal is all brawn and no brains,but that's just the way they play down there.I just want the good ol' days of Edberg and Becker and Stich and Graf to come back,when tennis was played with grace and style and with dignity, and not have to watch some bullfighting dope who stracthes his balls every two seconds.

[dennoow]

I think Nadal's tactics are very good every time as well. Else he wouldn't beat Federer all the time. I love the tennis nowadays, Edberg, Stich etc was just serve-volley-end of rally. It's boring! Nowadays it's a lot of rallies where Nadal and Federer are the best at. It's going a lot faster, the players are stronger and better. I love watching Nadal, Federer and Djokovic, regardless of who's scratching his balls.

[Rsutherland8]

Really? You should write the commentators who are constantly talking about Nadal's ability to diagnose and change his game plan accordingly and explain to them why you know better.

[Rsutherland8]

To Jamessmedly82...

[jamessmedley82]

I meant scratches.

[jamessmedley82]

I just watched the highlights of the Toronto semi in which Nadal knocked out Murray 7-6,6-3.Yes,Murray WAS a bit of a brat,and this isn't the first time he's been guilty of ungentlemanly behaviour.I don't think he's so far garnered the same sort of respect that we gave Henman.He's a little stroppy and rude, and I must admit that Rsutherland8 is right on this point,that Nadal has never shown any disrespect to any other player or audience or umpire.

[Declanblack08]

Nadal what a great guy ive forgot about wimbeldon/its gonna b a great memory but the season goes on

[sakinarocks]

NADAL is so much better than cocky Federer! He is sincere and humble. Not to mention, he alway brings his A-Game.

[maisee08]

whahahahahah A minus game.

[linaspin]

Yeah, Nadal keeps going doesnt he?  The Fed has just bowed out to a lesser Frenchman, howzat???

[superhipergoku]

I find this issue of the "languages" usseles. He´s a tennis player not a teacher.

Is he understandable???

Is he concise?

Does he go right to the "point"?

that simple.

[TraceyAuk]

Nadal appears as if he has just lost Wimbledon, not won it. Would have liked to hear the interviewer and how he phrased the questions, doesn't look like the interviewer is able to bring out the best in the players. Maybe he needs to take a lesson from Johnny Mac.

[reefric]

it´s not that, it´s just that rafa is focusing on the moment..maybe he couldn´t express himself so well because of the way he speaks his english(which is not bad,it´s improving)..

[Makaveli89daDON]

federer is number 1....and he will be for the foreseable future.....judge a man for how he bounces back.....and champions do bounce back.....federer will win the masters....put some money on it cause its gonna happen

[everythingceline]

Well, Federer lost yesterday to Gilles Simon. Do you realize how many points he was already lost with that??????????????? He certainly bounced back, didn't he???? Hahahaha!

[monthejoe]

Bouncing back takes longer than one tournament. The hard court season lasts 9 months for Gods sake. Give the man some time. The true champion will come through, to counteract the new crash bang wallop style tennis.

[diehardFedfan]

yeah..id like to see how nadal bounces back if a he loses at the french..ure such a moron..one cant bounce back within two weeks.

[linaspin]

Its hard to swallow the truth, but Fed has had his day mate. Did you hear he's just been trounced by a lesser Frenchman? Everyone has their time and he's had his. He is not truly no.1 anymore - Rafa is the true no.1 and he's got lots more stuff to give us. Just wait and see. He's just such a joy to watch too. Blooming Marvellous!!!

[dreamgirl23]

he's just lost his confidence after the rafa defeats. he's just de-moralised right now. wait a while and he'll get back to his form. i think it's his lack of confidence that is causing him to lose. it's very unlike him. poor guy.

[halli321]

Every sports champion has an off season before the get back to form.

[BHDmalarkey]

federer no 1

[XxthexdutchessxX]

Woo! Go RAFA!

[EricTheRed03]

This guy may not have the best English.. but he's humble.. and for that, I respect him!

[YGYGYGYGYGYGYGYGYG10]

Eric, his English is not that bad either. I mean he speaks rapidly, and that's pretty good for someone whose first language isn't English. He also understands when the interviewer is speaking rather fast when asking him questions. His English is better than he leads us to believe. I think he'd rather be speaking Spanish is why he says his English isn't good. It's much better than my French. lol lol

He speaks humbly, but his facial expressions on the court says, "How DARE you." lol

[xxchocolatebrownxx]

go rafa!!!

[Manuelka93]

Yeah, you're right DannyBZ9. But I hope he gonna play very well on hard this year :)

[DannyBZ9]

Rafa always falls apart during the hardcourt season, he plays so hard during the clay and grass, his knees cant hold up on the harder to play like he does hardcourts

[fetez1]

It's true.

That's why i was happy when he pulled out from stuttgart.

He might have expectations for this HC season. I hope so at least

And his game has improved overall, not only on clay and grass (that's what he says)

Lets wait and see

[SirBassline]

c'mon the rafa

[XbabyfacedassassinX]

c'mon roger now's the time to bounce back!

[galeena1]

he already answered you and bounced out!

[Gman6755]

Go Rafa!!! Win the US Open!!

[fetez1]

humble as always

[Sidewise89]

vamos rafa!

[bevcrockatt]

Go Rafa

[callumshearer92]

Roger Will Win In Toronto.

[threefiddyzed]

ahmen.

[dani431]

Vamos rafa X
