“I’m happier than it looks. I’m playing well and my tennis has become to be in good shape. There is still room for growth, but small. I need maybe a little security. Little things. Physically I am a hundred per one hundred and I missed everything, even the pain of wisdom teeth, “said Nadal.
Still, at this time, “winning is not an obsession,” added the player, who said he would be concerned only “if it is wrong or you did not play well.”
He explained that he is more interested “other happiness”, “take the health, friends and a great family” because, for example “the happiness of success at Wimbledon is only momentary.”
About his time away from the competition at his home in Mallorca, Nadal said he had enjoyed these peaceful days.
“In Manacor the pace is calm and people are relaxed. My serenity is born there, the ability to behave normally. Here I am neither a VIP, or an idol. On the island, the autographs I ask for them only tourists. I awake staring at the sea, so my day starts right from the start,” he explained.
“Roger is a much more complete player than me and I had to beat him to get better. Overcoming the level of my tennis to make the best of me. In this he helps me,” he said.
Also clarified that with the world number one for years maintained a “cordial” and that often send mobile messages (SMS) to congratulate for birthdays or for wins.
“When he won in Paris in 2009 I said I was very happy for him because he deserved it,” he added.
“I do the checks, I want to do and want to make them all. The courts must be clean,” he said.
However, he added, “I am honest when I say that the charges of doping, be home from 8 to 9 am, notify the list of my movements, where I go and with whom, are a breach of privacy.”
“I have been doing drug testing in every tournament I’ve played this year and last week have been even Manacor to my house. I do not ask do not, but are a bit more reasonable. They have to become a show,” said Spanish racket.
