Nadal- kindness is never wasted. You're a great and kind legend. She'll never forget you and neither will we.

[@dhart8451]

He should have given her his racquet instead of a sweaty head band.

[@Nightopian1982]

I think she was more blushing than in pain. Imagine how jealous her friends would be. I tell you, this girl's reaction puts the ballgirl in the French Open doubles match - where Kato was disqualified - to shame. This girl's a fair bit younger too I'd say.

The Nadal moments are my favourite. He's so sweet and caring, making sure the ball girl was okay, a moment she will never forget 😊

[@lochnessmunster1189]

Plus, it's awesome that Nadal also went onto win that match. too.

[@cosandreas9414]

She will forget it due to the concussion...😂

Nadal the best 👍👍

[@Nina-oi1qk]

The 2 Rafa moments were so charming! He does have a lovely personality! That smile!

[@JG7868]

Nadal and Tsonga are such classy gentleman players - love them. As the commentator rightly states 'Not only is Rafa a champion, he's a beautiful human being.' He also spent sometime with the girl and her parents after this match to make sure she was really alright - she was stoked - said that he is her favourite player. So unlike some who smash rackets and hit lines people when they lose. What a disgrace!

[@armilieumalihernandez593]

Agree! 😊

[@AIKnowYou]

And that's how I met your mother

[@jasminewessels6932]

Agreed

[@michadegraaf4570]

Smashing rackets can go hand in hand perfectly with showing compassion on other moments. Its what makes us human snowflake ;)

[@Imanc]

Rafa is such a champion!!!!

[@sumankumarreddy9293]

Nadal movement is unbelievable...what a down to earth attitude...❤️❤️❤️

[@aryastark772]

That’s what I love about tennis. Most of the pro players are so thoughtful and good sports people. Gentlemen and great women. Helping other players and ball kids in need

[@obscurereference6298]

all but 1 of the top players of all time are great. shame about the guy right now.

[@_MrAyOuB]

This kids are the true legends!

[@astrologysphere1158]

That Rafa return was so strong, probably 100 km/h, but he went towards ball girl, showed his concern, he kissed her... In fact he gave his head band to her after the match.. that's real respect, indeed he's a gentleman, a true human 👏❤️

[@ivaneames4354]

I love how he checked on her again after the match. Some issues aren't apparent immediately and take time to emerge so I like that he double checked later just to be sure.

[@markkeohane9850]

There aren't many (any?) other sports where the top talent comes into direct contact and interaction with ordinary kids during sporting competition. That's what provides the openings for these lovely moments. And it's when you find out who the real top talent is. And it ain't just the ones who win all the games.

[@LucianDevine]

I feel like it's mostly just tennis and baseball, both with ballboys and ballgirls?

[@gatosfidel]

Respect to these kids.

[@balaramsprasad]

5:30 Nadal bottle one was next level 😂❤

[@brahmsianer5899]

Did the umpire interrupt, because one of Rafa's bottles fell down?

[@balaramsprasad]

@@brahmsianer5899 Yeah. He pointed out that first.

[@kimjongpunk8024]

Rafael Nadal no deja de sorprenderme, es un caballero 🇪🇦

[@charlottevanlangevelde1114]

That one where Rafa hit the ballgirl, the serve was 184km Rafa’s return was probably not much less.. Geez that must have hurt 😳

[@jamesdingley6447]

The girl didn’t flinch

[@0saintclark0]

I think it actually hits the rim of her hat, very lucky.

[@vakama9053]

@@0saintclark0 Yeah, you can see how deformed the brim of the hat is. I think it still either deflected down into her face or bent the hat far enough to hit her face though, because it looks like her right eye is already tearing up a bit by the time Rafa makes it over there, which is a pretty sure sign of getting hit right around there

[@attiliofisher1094]

sure she took hard shot in face and she didn't make a tragedy also, nadal did a real sport gentleman act of respect and mankind, bravo bravissimo

[@Nightopian1982]

Yeah when you compare the line judge Djokovic hit at the US Open, or the ballgirl Kato hit in the current French Open doubles (pathetic), this was far harder, and didn't result in a load of blubbing. No, Rafa shows class, but Kato's opponents moaned to the umpire and got her disqualified after he'd given a warning.

[@Rafagreat]

Rafa what a gentlemen personality

[@sridhars8740]

Humility at it's best Keep it up

[@user-ru7tl3ih9l]

❤They are great and admirable kids, no matter boy or girl. Because they “ Try the utmost effort to do their job well “, Salute!

[@claudiodomingues5599]

Nadal é um baita cara, gigante na humildade nota 900000000000000000...............

[@ZATennisFan]

We have just lost Roger and we won’t have Rafa for too much longer. Let us remember how we lucky we were, as tennis fans, to have those two great players and great human beings on the tour at the same time

[@bobbowie9350]

I dont think "Losing" isn't the right word...

[@Nightopian1982]

Yeah , unfortunately looks like he'll be missing Wimbledon and the US Open at least before he recovers from his surgery. It'd be great if he could bow out with a final hurrah in 2024, but it depends on how much fitness and sharpness he loses during his recovery. So much more class than Djokovic, he and Federer both.

[@theacechip]

He is still around, just not playing regular pro tennis anymore. Hopefully in the Legends tour sometime.

[@Mclem2k24]

Rafa, #2 highlight, #1 human being Pure class!

[@drsnowmon]

Nadal is genuinely a kind person if you meet him, he's not acting

That’s because most of them were ball kids themselves

Gracias .. excelente video.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@dragonlord4643]

I have to admit that Tennis is far superior of any other kind of Sports when it comes to Kidness and Humor. The people just have a different and respectful mindset. I am more a Ice Hockey type of Person based on my more Figher Nature but it wearms my heart how people treat each other in that Sport and that they play fair and for their joy. Something that Fooball Stars can learn a lot from.

The 2nd last was a great gesture

[@Cinetyk]

I love all these, they really show that between humour and kindness all the proper feelings are there. Imho big part of sportsmanship is proper feelings and also ability to find humour in things :) #2 for me is the best - girl made it so it's not a big deal, she's so focused on the job, but still appreciative. And by the end it's so nice Rafa remembered and she's like "I'm fine :) "
