I think Stakky is right on the money, Nadal's biggest talent is hard work contrary to what a lot of his fans like to believe that Nadal is most talented in shot making (Djokovic for example is a much more talented shot maker than Nadal). But overall, Nadal is no doubt a talented tennis player.

Stakhovsky on Federer-Nadal:
Federer plays a less physical tennis. Someone has more God-given talent; someone has more of something else. For me, Nadal is more talented in terms of discipline and hard work. Thanks to that he became the No.1 player at the time. But Federer – that’s a tennis player from God, a talent which found “his own” sports field.
Everyone learns from Federer. In 2006-2008, Roger moved tennis in an absolutely different direction. He played so quickly that everyone followed him. But then the slowing down of courts started.
