This makes me tear up.

God I feel so fucking proud of him when hearing people talking about him… And seeing these pictures… Such amazing memories I’ll never forget!

Rafael Nadal interview post match.

“It wasn’t in my plans when I started in this to win 8 times in Montecarlo. I’m very happy because of how I’ve played this tounrnament, starting the clay season like this is pretty god, more after some finals losed. I’m very happy.”

“My serve has given me the chance of start dominating many points, i’ve been able to play more agressive, he has made more errors than usual, but i’ve been more strong mentally, I’ve made few errors in important moments and that has been the key.”

“He hasn’t been perfect today, like sometimes have happened to me. I don’t know if his grandpa thing would habe affected him, but it happened at the beggining of the weekend and he’s been able to reach the final. These days he have had up and downs, and today I’ve been strong and made few errors, so I won.

“I’ll be at Barcelona tomorrow training a little bit, I wanna continue with the good way. As madridista, I’m very happy because yesterday’s win. La Liga is close, so I hope they are confident to win the knockout of the Champions League, and hope the play against Barcelona at the final because that would mean that both of them have classified.”

Hi, if you are still feeling down about the Australian Open (like I am) this may be just the medicine you need to make you feel that little bit better. This is a 14 minute long, extended version of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal laughing while shooting the commercial for the 2010 Match For Africa. Featuring:

• Roger swearing
• “Could you imagine if you we had to film a movie together? It would probably take like 5 years.”
• Both men sweating
• Roger speaking Spanish
• Roger to Rafa: “you’re perfect, it’s me.”
• Rafa fixing his hair for some length of time

This is the best video in history. 26 majors between them and about 8 years on top dominating the men’s tour, and these two can’t manage to say a few lines in front of a camera without laughing. I love them.

OMG, THANK YOU!! I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE COMPLETE VIDEO SINCE.. THE VIDEO WAS AIRED! THANK YOU THANK YOU!

These two… So fucking adorables <3

Rafael Nadal vs Pico Mónaco. Amazing point!

Few tennis players see questioned their season after winning a Major and reaching 10 finals. But speaking about Rafa Nadal, who doesn’t even like to fail in trainings, the number 2 is never enough. Therefore there is a recurring question: How is Nadal a few days before of the Davis Cup final?

Toni Nadal: “He’s normal, we’re not going to deceive. When one has some results that they’re not very good, always has doubts.”

Doubts that according with his uncle, have declined the player phisically and mentally. They say it is difficult to reach the top, but what is even more so, is to hold on.

John Carlin: “What I stick about Rafa Nadal after spending some time in their environment is the tremendous intensity he has and the burden of his life. Rafa’s life is a kind of permanent pressure cooker, and that I couldn’t survive not even 5 minutes in the life of him or in the head of Rafa Nadal.”

A head that today saves an enigma. On Friday we’ll know, which the result is.
