So is his wife.

 

[octobrina10]

So is his wife.

The woman in a yellow coat is not Rafa's wife.

 

[Bartelby]

He brought his mistress?

The woman in a yellow coat is not Rafa's wife.

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

The woman in a yellow coat is not Rafa's wife.

There's a bit of confusion imo, ma'am. Maybe claqueen was referring that rafa's wife has arrived with him at the Australian continent as well.

 

[octobrina10]

He brought his mistress?

A plane brought that woman for someone else.

Australian Open 2021 winner has arrived.

This is the type of breaking news I keep coming to TTW for.

 

[MichaelNadal]

The KING!

 

[aldeayeah]

Djokovic and Thiem too, they all actually went on the same plane.

Happy New Year! This is just a short update on my way to Australia. After a pit-stop in Barcelona a long flight is ahead of me - and there are some tennis stars on the passenger list. In addition to my team, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal are on board, and, of course...

Nadal News 2.0 maybe?

 

[NADALalot]

Nadal News 2.0 maybe?

But then only the people who open Nadal News 2.0 would see the photos.
Nadal is the most famous person in Australia, so best to share these photos with everybody, not only Nadal fans.

Thiem arrives in Adelaide

 

[DSH]

One of the top 4 candidates to win the AO 2021 has arrived.
Nice!

 

[Rosstour]

Those pants are awful. Dude really can't dress well.

 

[NADALalot]

That's because he's a man, and real men aren't into fashion.

 

[Rosstour]

That's because he's a man, and real men aren't into fashion.

If he were a manly man he wouldn't be wearing jeans that tight. That's trying to be fashionable and failing.

 

[MasterZeb]

Who cares?

 

[NADALalot]

If he were a manly man he wouldn't be wearing jeans that tight. That's trying to be fashionable and failing.

He wouldn't know he's "failing", because he's a real man, and real men don't pride themselves on fashion.
Only vain fools can "fail" because of clothes....

 

[CYGS]

Who cares?

Fed fans would. 21 might be coming for Nadal.

 

[DSH]

Fed fans would. 21 might be coming for Nadal.

Don't say that out loud!

He’s Rafagasmic in jeans smh.

 

[octobrina10]

Men with a great body (like Rafa) can wear tight jeans. Men with an ugly body have to hide it.

 

[Rosstour]

He wouldn't know he's "failing", because he's a real man, and real men don't pride themselves on fashion.

Indeed.

This is the type of breaking news I keep coming to TTW for.

You obviously do. It's so "breaking" that you commented on it

 

[aldeayeah]

As a fellow man with a high ass/waist ratio, I find that remark offensive

most clothes manufactures insist in making pants only for the flatbutted, thankfully i got my bases covered with Pierre Cardin

Slimmer fits were very much in vogue in menswear for much of the 2010s. Admittedly, younger men have now gone back to oversized fits, but still.

 

[octobrina10]

Indeed.

Iconic Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani noticed about 10 years ago that Rafa is a real man with a great body and asked Rafa to model jeans for the Armani fashion house. Rafa accepted the job he was offered.

[Rosstour]

All true, just don't try to tell me that Rafa's fashion goofs are because he's a manly man and not concerned with fashion.

 

[octobrina10]

@Rosstour
To each is own. For you:

 

[Rosstour]

I wear slim jeans too. Just not jeggings.

 

[octobrina10]

All true, just don't try to tell me that Rafa's fashion goofs are because he's a manly man and not concerned with fashion.

Rafa has always looked great.

The title of the thread says clearly says what it's about and you still clicked on it. It's not like it's a click bait.

I was hoping it was.

Guess I must have missed the OP avatar.

Everyone has been longing to know when Rafa would arrive in Australia. We've all been waiting too long.

Did you just make a funny?

 

[Rosstour]

Rafa has always looked great.

Most of the time yes, but there are some notable goofs, much like Federer's backwards pants or those shorts with the blazer.

 

[clayqueen]

Did you just make a funny?

It's a fact.

 

[OldschoolKIaus]

Rumor has it that the Nadal might do a few laps on Adelaide circuit.

 

[MeatTornado]

It's a fact.

I'm sure you believe that.

 

[octobrina10]

Rumor has it that the Nadal might do a few laps on Adelaide circuit.

It wouldn't be Rafa's first race.

Pictures below were taken in France in 2018.

Rafa and F1 driver Fernando Alonso, his fellow countryman (wearing a cap), have known each other for a long time:

Well... let's just say he got a lot better looking with age.

 

[zipplock]

No social distancing. Tsk tsk tsk .....

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Nadal looks so funny in these clothes, they make him look chubby luel.
inb4 octrollina sees as a mean attack on her dearest and posts a picture of fedr looking silly, actually go ahead do it I'll have a nice laugh.

 

[octobrina10]

One more great leather jacket (pictured in Oct.2008):

 

[SinneGOAT]

I don’t see this being 21, 12 years + 4 finals appearances are t good odds to bet on.

Well, we better hope no one on that plane had COVID or this year’s AO is gonna be a farce

 

[OldschoolKIaus]

Peak Alonso > Peak Nadal

 

[socallefty]

Novak likely still has immunity.
