“Yeah, I mean probably out of six he looks like a guy who hasn’t played a tournament in a while, but you don’t really care about him on clay.”Roddick said on the Tennis Channel.

“One of the great things about Rafa is that he can get into these games and the aggressiveness will come, opening his shoulders and intimidating people will come. The base level of ‘hear him I can run, I can grind, I can put the ball in awkward places for my opponent above his shoulders’ that never really goes away. He’s going to keep his unforced error level down—it’s a good backup plan to have before it all starts to add up on the offensive end of everything.” added the American.

The ‘Fiera’ has 22 Grand Slam trophies and is two away from Novak Djokovic as the most successful athlete in history. Likewise, fans hope that Rafael Nadal can win other awards and thus stretch his difference.
