Rafa mantra to deal with adversities- "Being humble, respect every opponent and the willingness to put in the work on the daily"

HE IS SUCH A GREAT GUY AND A FENOMINAL TENNISPLAYER !! 👏👏👏👏

Rafa is right.. Handled it so well and professionally with a smile. also when umpire treats differently, ask them the question not Rafa. And McEnroe can have favorites but don’t pass negative comments on live TV! I don’t even know why he is a commentator for Rafa’s matches in the first place!

John McEnroe can't say anything about anyone, he threw temper tantrums on the court.

You tell them Rafa! Probably a Serb reporter?

i respect him so much❤

The question only tries to make him think the rest of the tournement, when he serves. No different rules for him, this kinds of questions are ridicilous.

Good answer Rafa! You never had rage in court! Silly stupid questions!

Why is it that the name/affiliation geezers always ask the dumbest questions when they and even the viewers knew the answers and saw what happened on court?

Nadal was given a time violation warning in the AO final at a pivotal moment. The question was stupid.

P.S. I grew up in 1970's and 80's and McEnroe & Nadal are by far my 2 favorite tennis players. I will back John in every argument possible! To say Rafa disrupts the game and is getting special treatment is Johnny Mac missing how much he controlled millions of people with his crazy antics. Honestly, he is the last tennis player in history to be 👉 at another player!!!!!! Johnny is still top 2 for me, and ain't even mad how much he despises Rafa, in fact, I think it is gamesmanship form the commentary booth!

Anyway the ball kids should not carry the sweaty towels. One way to reduce the time for wiping the sweat is to carry a small towel on the waist. Like Pat Cash used to do.

Jonny Mac does not have 22 slams and neither 4 us opens. Jonny Mac just likes to talk trash.

I feel like those journalists have no questions but they prefer to ask anyway...

Now he did a good job responding and rebutting BUT he did not point out whether he actually takes more time than other players, regardless of the old time rule insituted pre-pandemic.

Look I believe the chair umpire should enforce the 25 second clock on the serve especially if it's blatantly over the limit but many (not all ) of Rafa's opponents take advantage of that time to catch their breath and regroup for the next point and if you're a competitor that can't be the excuse you use for why you lost a match. That's just weak.

Love or Hate Rafa, that last answer was priceless! Also, some respect to media guy for having "balls" toast ask!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rafa, you are a true professional, you never curse, yell, scream, or break rackets on the court; you are always a gentleman to your opponents and are always positive on the court towards the fans, etc...but, seriously, what's up with you and the time clock?

Traducción oosssstiiiiiaaa!

Iam looking for the guy who asked last question to hit him

Rafa is Tennis. John McEnroe is bias for Djokovic. If he is whining about clock violation my response to Johnny Mac is "you can't be serious."

Que pregunta ridícula te ha hecho el reportero!

Nadal's long bathroom break is a joke.

Rafa is going to make John McEnroe eat crow! Rafa gets picked on by the refs because he is the greatest. Johnny Mac is just jealous!

The journalist is right. Rafa takes too much time before serving, he did that in RG as well, especially against Zverev. But he shouldn't have phrased the question disrespectfully like that

Thats true Rafa gets away with a lot of things that Novak will be penalised for. What a Shame, he is a great player though!!

It had to be a salty Serbian journalist to ask this question about time violation trying to put Nadal down. 😂

What an absolute dumb question at the end!!!! Must be Djokovic,s cousin!

Como fastidia todo lo Español

Serbian journalist looking to hurt Rafa🤦

No injury there, just lies from BALDDAL :))))

First class cheater!
