I do not watch All thecLawn Tennis ATP TOURS of the World.I used to watch Wimbledon,Australian OpenUS Open
& French open .but these two not absolute regular since the timings do not match with Indian Timings.
But I never used to miss matches in which Rafel Naadal appears as far as possible notwithstanding the wrong
timings suiting India.
Why I watch Naadal so closely?The answer is simple.I like his cool nature.He never plays in overenthusiastic
way .Never curses while playing.
Above all,I like Nadal for his powerful Service & aces besides service returns covering one end to another of
The court easily & effortlessly.
The fastness of his game is his trade mark with amazing speed and accuracy.
Whenever Nadal plays in a tiebreaker the games used to extend extend indefinitely because he would not allow
the opponent freedom to take break points.
He had been in the injured list for a long time when I totally missed Tennis.
Now after recovery from injury he had made a comeback.during this come back period he lost one title but at
The same time gained two.
The latest of his victory was against his fellow country specialist David Ferrerin the Mexican open
Beating Ferrer in straight sets 6-0,& 6-2.David Ferrer is the reigning Champion& 3 time s Winner in the
Mexican open.This crown contributes ,thus,additional Glory to Nadal.
In this come back after about 7 months gap due to injury to his knee,Nadal had lost the Chily open
but won the Brazil open.
Thus this crown he won beating Ferrer ,is the second crown he won until now after the Come back.
The Laurels he had won earlier are not easy to count & hence I do not want to go into it very deep.
Many more Crowns are awaiting Nadal my hero of Lawn Tennis.
It had always been a treat for me to watch Nadal when ever I got a chance to watch him on Television.
Unfortunately,I am yet to watch him in a court direct without the help of TV as he is yet to visit India
All the Best to my hero Rafel Nadal.
In this context I should also remember Narvatilova, Steffi Graf,Andre Agassi of Las Vegas,& Federer whose games I
had chance to watch closely.Pete Samprass was my earlier Hero during his Playing Days.
