Rafael Nadal’s trainer with Carlos Moya and Marc Lopez, Francis Roig spoke about the news of his foal for the “Radio Nacional de España”. In particular, he gave his opinion on the famous GOAT race, in which the Mallorcan took a little lead over his two big rivals with this 21e Grand Slam title acquired in Australia.
« Two months ago, I would have told you that Rafa had a very hard life. But for now, I would say it’s 50-50 with Novak. Roger’s situation is very difficult because he has been away for a long time and he is older. We know that Novak has maybe a little more time ahead of him than Rafa. We’ll see what happens, it would be great if Rafa could get that next Roland Garros. Djokovic has the problem of not having been vaccinated, which is very respectable. The test for him will be when he can no longer play a Grand Slam. For now, he cannot play in the United States, a tour he has always loved. Maybe he’s waiting for the rule change, I don’t know. It will be his decision and he will have to evaluate it well ».
