One of the last comments was, “Nadal wins every single tournament”. His fans are truly excited for him to be back and along with that also hope for him to not just play but win grand slams and tournaments the way he used to before he left.
In comparison to the posts about Nadal, the posts about Federer were very few. Even though a few of them did wish for Federer to make a comeback and win the Grand Slams, most of the wish list was made up of Nadal’s wishes somehow.
Besides Nadal, one more player that made it to the list was world number 1, Novak Djokovic.
