Adoro o Rafa. Sempre humilde e super simpático ❤

5:26 great backhand!

Сильно. Сижу рыдаю. Иногда для будущности своих детей приходится делать сильные шаги, переступать через материнское чувство привязанности и желание держать своих детей под крылом. Блин, это сильно и оно того стоило.

The Art of Press Conference is Marat then Andy !!!

Sorry Cincinnati 😀

Can any russian please translate what Marat's mother was saying as she weeps?

I think he didn't catch the flight he went to interview with david letterman the best interview letterman had on his show.

um... beleeable!

Отца Марата Сафина зовут Мубин, а не Михаил.

Thanks/gràcies for uploading it.

What did Nadal say at the beginning in Spanish..

This venue looks so beautiful... perfect place for Rafa to win...

What was Nadal saying in the beginning when everyone laughed

They looked so happy together

Young Rafa, living his best life! :)

Марат Сафин тот благодаря кому я начал следить за теннисом!)❤

gosh it is so nice to hear this young man compliment his rival... djokowitch - 14 years ago...what a great kid he is...he is giving him such high praise - says they should put his games in one video and keep playing it... does djokowitch even say a good word about rafael... ? i hear him only say lousy stuff about Rafa... not just him...his parents go one up on insulting him... and then come the "fans"... they go over all the rest in their jibes...

Resemblent...!!! gosh... both his "photocopy shot" idea and his choice of words are totally off the mark... Rafa is such a smart kid... was then... is now... only his physique let him down badly...

When he says it becomes an obsession of you take a long time to win the last of the 4... made me think ,”that’s what happened to nole. He had to wait for his first French for like..... 4 finals lol

He has been telling people his goal is to improve. That has only ever been his goal.

I miss them together :(

Rafa y John tienen mucho sentido del humor ... Vaya cracks!!

awww, he's so cute!.. he's even more handsome than some teens in some Nickelodeon...guess the courts made his face look tougher through the years.

Did he say something like..." after i lose in miami... " he just speaks and his words come true...:-(

such a simple child he used to be... today you cannot find anyone like this boy... some traces of his child-self are still there in him/on his face... but just no one like him these days... the young ones of today are unbearable... the teenagers who are billed to replace him...ugggh...totally off mark...

wonder if any of those camera guys got any worthwhile picture... the whole scenario looks so messed up...and Rafa is in a bus... what picture would those guys could have got...so many of them... really pathetic...

Rafa's press conferences of the 2005 - 2010... just amazing... he used to simply open his heart and mind to any kind of question asked, so honest - the way he says that the winners' speech remains the same except for a few changes... ha ha ha... not even expert speakers speak so candidly to english-language reporters...and by now i think he means it when he says he is happy just playing well and not pumped up by the prospect of title/trophy... such a great kid he was... now everything has changed... so sad to see this boy ageing... and the horrible youngsters around him...

Rafa's interviews as a boy are way way better than his interviews these days... amazing kid... how he asks for english words in the middle of a PC is just amazing... :-) :-) sometimes the word he proposes suits the sentence but his language-assistant messes up by giving complex phrases like "run away with the match"... or in this case "stay in the match"... unusual chap Rafa... nice to hear him mention chennai in this pc... never knew he was in chennai...

macenroe needs a hearing test

Little did he know XD and now????.............

Rafael Nadal is Jesus. He is the second coming.

all of a sudden in the middle of tennis talk: "Lot of people are struggling economically in Spain and the united states..." Old man JohnMcEnroe turns economic commentator...to Rafa the US open winner 2010.. what a comedy... what can RafaelNadal do to ease situations of international/national economics i wonder... he might be able to and he does a lot for his island...his small village...as he says...but spain...united states...!!!

20yr old Rafa saying that 19yr old djoko is a "young player"...and djoko as usual putting on an act of being in pain - just to make his opponent lose concentration - feel sorry the way Rafa says "he puts his hand on his back and then serves well..."... poor Rafa... this other guy just played mind games and messed his career... Rafa could have been a 27 slam champ if not for these people and their mind games...with all his injury adding to...

wah.... what a champ Rafa... he has no problem praising and giving future credit to this other guy who and whose family lose no chance to belittle Rafa! this disproves all the bad blood that the other also-rans keep dumping on Rafa... too bad really that such people manage to get the better of a true champ like Rafa...life can be cruel to good people....he is just a few months older and he says "he is young..." so sad... Rafa humbles himself more than necessary...

Fantastic clip! Thanks so much for posting!!! Love Marat... Such a legend.

6:32 - 6:39 And years later Safin confessed that he never really enjoyed playing tennis during his competition for winning time.

One of the greatest smiles ever

The saint meets the devil - I love them both!

now they have the same GSs

McEnroe grown up...great job

Me as a reporter coming Back from 2020, “Rafa what would you think if someone were to effectively tie Pete Sampras’s 14 major record using only, Roland Garros for instance?”

You don’t really believe that right? Right now he has 16 grand slams and I have 9.... ooofffffff

Poor federer didn't have too much space even to stand in the stage.. he was pushed right at the edge of the stage

The chinese character actually means “monkey” so was that a tongue in cheek answer?

its frustrating that he couldn't keep that serve

The way he collapses on the floor is what has taken toll of his youth...and his knees...even i think... i would have died if i kept falling to the floor like that....What a presence he makes...in this video...charisma+great looks + sensible and well composed responses (despite his limited english)... feel sad that the passing years have robbed so much of his great looks....

Rafa now you can compare with Roger

Nadal is my Champion! He is incredible to watch on court. I think he had a big smile the entire interview with McEnroe. He is just the best. His parents must be so proud of him. Keep on winning!
