Nadal And The MTO, Illegal Coaching, Time Wasting

Boom-Boom

Legend
Rafa is probably going to win the FO this year, but I'd like to see all his opponents in that tournament - from round 1 to 7 - take at least one MTO in their match, and then later congratulate Rafa on his win but subtly add that "Rafa is a great champion and an incredible player, but it's too bad that I couldn't play my best tennis today because of some physical problems".
Just give the humble Bull some of his own medicine...

That would be hilarious :twisted:

Nadal is the biggest cheat the sport has ever seen. Everyone knows this. His fans defend him no matter what, but they know it. They try to deflect it and accuse Fed, Djokovic, Murray etc of the same things Nadal does in every match, which always backfires.

He bumped into Rosol, time wasted on nearly every point, has taken millions of MTO's when his opponents are beating him and bullies umpires. How anyone can justify supporting someone who is such a tool is baffling. Nadal fans have no right to talk about other players behaviour when they support someone so cruel. But it's deflection. Without cheating Nadal would have no slams, so he isn't an all time great. End of.

I think I've run into somebody whose dislike for Nadal may surpass even my own, lol.

Once a cheat always a cheat. Nadal just got a warning from umpire for getting hand signals from his team on his match against Troicki in Shanghai 2016.


Edit: he just got time violation warning too. What a cheat.


Edit: Cheat -----> Karma muahahaha

I take up this thread instad of making a new out of respect for my fellow members on this board.

At 30-all (I believe it was 3 times) Nadal took 40 seconds between points. No warning.

Anderson took 30 seconds once, and imidiately got one.

Please, don't label this "Nadal-hate", I am just intrigued. It's like the player who wastes the most time, almost never gets any warnings, at least not until sometime towards the end of the match. I also notice when he has smooth sailing, like in the final last night, he is between 20-25 all the time, but once there is an important point, he takes 40 seconds. Is it because he knows the umpires would never disrupt him before a big point? Is he protected, do they treat him differently because of his routines?
