When Rafael Nadal dominated Novak Djokovic in the Roland Garros final to win his 13th title at Roland Garros, he didn’t celebrate his victory too much.
We were far from certain moments when he collapsed on the court to stay long seconds on the ground.
Indirectly, it is clear that the conditions under which this success was achieved had consequences for his gesture.
Moreover, lately, he wanted to clarify the reason for this attitude: “It was obviously a very important moment for me, professionally, and let’s be honest, personally too. It meant a lot to me to win again at Roland Garros and achieve the number of titles I have. But neither can I deny the fact that at the end the celebration was not as happy as after my other victories ”
Without really saying it, we know that the Spaniard, who is very empathetic, close to his “people”, has been deeply affected morally by the health crisis.
Subconsciously, therefore, he did not want to do too much. VS
This was also confirmed in his post-match “speech”.
Sober and dignified, Rafael had placed his feat in context with a lot of class, sincerity and emotion.
