Nadal. Baiter of Hardcourt-coddled Backhands. On hardcourt, backhands feed off the opponent's pace. Nadal removes the pace on clay. He casts his line with a slow 'plop' in your backhand corner. Subtext? "Hit through slowest surfrace, to my Hellboy forehand, amigo."

Grazie!!!! 🧱🏆👏🏻 It‘s like a dream ❤️❤️ Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters

When it comes to the tactical aspect of the game, Nadal was a genius.

When Rafael Nadal became a gold medallist in 2008 🤩🥇

The first man *EVER* to win five consecutive Masters 1000 titles: 🇫🇷 Paris 🇺🇸 Indian Wells 🇺🇸 Miami 🇲🇨 Monte Carlo 🇪🇸 Madrid Jannik Sinner #MMOpen

Sinner since he peaked has turned Zverev into his punching bag because he neutralizes all of Zverev's strengths: Serve + Backhand. Zverev cannot neutralize Sinner's strengths, because he's a mediocre returner with a wack forehand.

The flop 90s gen thought that when RN and ND faded away, the crown would just fall into their hands without them having to fight for it. The worst gen in the history of the sport; they don't want to fight for what they yearn for. Now the 2000s gen is mopping the floor with them!

People should realize that Fils a B level player, against players on his level or lower, he'll look good but against the A level players like Sinner and Alcaraz, he'll be put to sleep. Fils is not that guy.
