“worse than what he really is.” – Rafael Nadal on Novak Djokovic’s image 

Ever since he became a professional player, Djokovic has received criticism for his antics. Be it his racket smashing, fights with the chair umpires, and allegedly taking unwarranted medical timeouts, all tennis fans have been miffed. However, Rafael Nadal believes that his image is worse than the person he is and that his real personality is that of a good human, as he talked on Marca. 

 “The image he projects is worse than what he really is. He is a good person, with his mistakes… but much better than what he looks like. I think when someone with so much success has to project. Novak breaks the racket but at the next point he is one hundred percent, that’s why he is the one who has achieved the most in the history of our sport. The numbers don’t lie, he is the best in history.”
