Toni Nadal spoke about tennis today in the television Mallorca Esports . First analyzed the Masters in London and compared the two world stars of the moment: "I'm glad Andy Murray has been placed number one, but I think Djokovic is a little better because it has shown in the worst moments. He won in Australia, Roland Garros, made final at the US Open and now have dropped ". And the future is less clear Federer: "Herecover, but I see difficult him to win a Grand Slam for the subject to play five sets."



He also had words for his nephew and disciple Rafa who have all the faith in the world for the coming season: "I am convinced that we will see the best Rafa Nadal next season and will be the leading candidate to win Roland Garros. We are already training for an hour and doing quite well . "

Tio Toni dissected the future of Spanish tennis: "Continuity or relay is now much complicated or is only Carreño, is a good player but now is not top-10 Jaume Munar We'll see if can get.".
 
'We will see the best Rafael Nadal next year, it will be a great season,' said Toni Nadal, hinting that Rafa is getting ready to bounce back stronger next year. The goal is to be at the best level on clay. 'I think at Roland Garros we will be among the favourites with Djokovic. There are Murray and others as well, but I am confident that the tenth Roland Garros title can come,'Toni said to Mallorca Esports TV, adding their preparation for the next year has already started. However the level in the practice sessions is not so high at the moment because the wrist still needs to heal. 'We started to practice for an hour per day, every day, and at the moment it is going well. We are going step-by-step like the doctor suggested.'

Toni also spoke about Andy Murray becoming the world no. 1. 'I am happy for him but I think Djokovic is a little better, he showed it in the worst moments. Djokovic won Australian Open, Roland Garros, reached the US Open final and then he dropped his level because there comes a moment where the mind needs to rest. Surely he will be at his best level next year.'

The opinion on Roger Federer is different. 'He will be at a good level again but I think it will be difficult for him to win a Grand Slam title because you play best of five sets, even if you never know. Last year in Wimbledon he almost won against Djokovic.'

Robert Federer spoke about tennis today in the television Basel sports. First analyzed the Masters in London and compared the two world stars of the moment: "I'm glad Andy Murray has been placed number one, but I think Roger is a little better because it has shown in the worst moments. He won their last five matches, at Wimbledon, The Real Slam, and so on, but now he just needed a break is all." And the future is less clear for the Swiss star's long-time rival, Rafael Nadal: "From here on, I see it as difficult for him to win a Grand Slam because of stuff like winning more than two matches in a row and so on. But you never know, Rafa almost won a set against Novak at the French last year!"


He also had words for his son and disciple Roger who have all the faith in the world for the coming season: "I am convinced that we will see the best Roger Federer next season, peaking yet again at age 39, and will be the leading candidate to win Wimbledon and more. We haven't even bothered training. My boy Roger doesn't need that stuff."

Bob Federer dissected the future of Swiss tennis: "Continuity is looking good. Roger can dominate for maybe seven more years, and then the grandkids will be old enough to take over."

This is totally invented, Robbie would never say such crap, nor is his name "Bob."

When pressed for elaboration on the typical training regimen for a middle-aged GOAT, Mario added, "Mama Mia!"

The Dall only needed 1 hour practice now that he has a new abbreviated back swing on the butt pick to protect the wrist and also he has no hair to pick.

Now he doesn't even need to shake his head back and forth before he put his bandana on. Very good move on the AeroPro [emoji769] haircut IMHO. Nadal is a lock for RG17.

He thinks it will be difficult for Federer who reached two slam finals in 2015 to win a slam but he's confident Nadal who hasn't made it past the QF of a slam since 2014 will win RG? Good Lord! :rolleyes:
 
Nadal used to like to be the underdog because it made him confident. Nowadays it doesn't help and it just makes Nadal feel down because he is actually the underdog, so Toni might think that making him the overdog will make Nadal feel cheerful and a happy chappy.

I can see your point .

Rafa , after the USO loss , was fuming when a reporter asked him if ability to handle pressure is a question the last 2 years based on his inability to close matches and failing to reach later rounds . His retort was 'you don't win 14 majors if you don't know how to handle pressure'.

It was a far stretch from the earlier times when he used to say 'I have to improve to have a chance '
