Everyone speaks volumes when it comes to Rafael Nadal
Recently, fellow compatriot Pablo Andujar spoke highly of Rafa. He acknowledged the fact that after all the difficulties he has been through in his career, he yet manages a way to come out on top.
Speaking on Rafa, Pablo stated, “Of course. I’m not surprised by what he’s doing because he’s out of this world. He’s a monster. But it is true that it is getting more and more difficult to be at your best, it is more difficult to recover from a difficult day, a physically hard day. I think he has been improving in all these aspects thanks to experience.”
