The Very Best of Rafael Nadal | Best Points at Wimbledon

[@ssmith6550]

SUPER MAN! ❤❤❤

[@NyaCroft]

My favourite out of the big three, super talent and an even nicer bloke, the best era of all time is at an end. Sad times.

[@akshatmehra3951]

The most iconic player of all time !! Vamos, King Rafa 🔥🔥🔥

[@IrfanZuberi1980]

Damn, these highlights are a testament to how good Rafa was on grass... for which he doesn't get enough credit! Even apart from that brilliant trilogy of finals against prime Federer, culminating in his first title at Wimbledon in 2008, and also the title run in 2010, these highlights belong to a player who, on this surface alone, deserves legendary status! All the way till the last match he played against Fritz in 2022 with an injury, he brought the fight and won like a true gladiator! ♥

[@deadinthebed963]

Love Nadal Vamos Rafa Amazing what he achieved especially with his injuries coming back time and time again was always going to catch up with him eventually legendary competitor

[@rileyreese3991]

Rafa was the biggest rival for both Federer and Novak, neither of them could beat him on Roland Garros final. In a way Rafa completely marched his own solid path into the legendary King status. He is unique, in a league of his own. 14 Roland Garros will never be repeated. He is truly the Grand Champ, tHE kING.

[@andrewg27]

That’s why I feel like the big three are so unique individually. They all have their own different personality traits that makes them, them

[@tennisfan599]

Novak did beat him twice at eolans garros while nadal never got him in Australia. Nadal never won the tour finals.

[@za5760]

​​​​@@tennisfan599 He said roland garros final. not just roland garros matches. Fed n djokovic both never beat him in Roland garos final, same as Nadal never beat djokovic at AO open Final. Hard n grass courts both not his fav. But He did beat prime Fed at wimbledon Final 08 n again defeat prime Fed at AO Final 09. Nadal oso defeat prime Djokovic at US Open 10 & 13. Says a lot about King of Clay achievements outside clay. Forget to mentioned, Nadal got 2 olympics medal on Hard Court. In single he beat Djokovic in semi to go to Final and they play best of 5 in final olympic previously.

[@tennisfan599]

@za5760 It doesn't matter of it was a final or not. Every match is an elimination match.

[@tennisfan599]

@za5760 and djokovic won his gold on clay beating nadal in his house. Fun fact Djokovic is undefeated at the Beijing hardcourt tournament winning it all 5 times he played, yet Nadal won his gold there, while Djokovic won his at Roland Garros where rafa win 14.

[@hudders11]

Favourite player. Sad to see him go and my motivation for watching is gonna take a hit. I have been hoping for him to retire this season though as it's clear his body just can't do it anymore and it's been horrible watching him struggle/lose against players he would have mauled in his prime.

Rafa's legacy on clay is unrivalled for the ages, but his records on hard court and grass are never shy of amazing. Roger and Novak clearly have more untouchable hard court and grass records, but Rafa's gradual mastery of Wimbledon grass throughout his early career is scary. Not many people remember or know that Rafa reached 5 consecutive finals from 2006 to 2011 (did not compete in 2009).
