Tennis experts;Rafael Nadal the top ranked player for the next fifty two weeks
After grabbing the grass court Grand Slam title this season, the twenty four years old Rafael Nadal will no longer be labelled as the clay court specialist, as said by the experts.
According to the experts, it is the right time that the fanciers as well as the entire sport’s community must recognize what they are experiencing. While Rafa goes about his job in a blatantly distinct fashion as compared to the darling competitor Federer, he is definitely no less competent.
If Federer plays the game of tennis comparable to Peter Paul Rubens, the embodiment of epic charm and excellence, then Rafa is Salvador Dali. The depiction of the exotic, at times ruthless, however always eye popping genius. He is an intangible rebellious one whose contributions will be praised and studied for ages.
The time has certainly come to recognize the reality of the state of men’s game of tennis. We are living in the age of Rafael Nadal.
To accept this reality is not sedition versus Roger Federer. For a period of five years in a row, Roger dominated the sports with a ruthless control, scornfully whacking aside competition and consistently triumphing in various majors per year. Federer is who Federer is. His supremacy did happen. No one can deny that. According to the experts he was a tennis ace who developed into a prodigy.
However, it’s been patent since last year that the "Maestro" is not any more, the kind of player he was earlier. It's not something to bewail in fact; it is the reality of the present day that everyone has to admit either sooner or later. The sun shines, and then the darkness prevail. So it is something natural.
The Rafa reign started in 2008, however was shortly disrupted last year due to his injuries. A short struggling time period as a result of bad health and the dearth confidence that always follows any injured sportsman who do not completely trust their physical fitness demoted Rafa to spot three in the world.
However, sooner, Nadal found his good shape, his fitness as well as the self belief and he sent a stark message to the entire sports world, “face me if you have guts”. In the French Open championship as well as the grass court Grand Slam earlier this year, he brushed aside the hopes of Robin Soderling as well as Andy Murray.
The figures scream for themselves. Rafa: nine sets gained, Murray and Robin: a mutual single set.
With the most sullen and physically demanding Grand Slam, United States Open just around the corner, Rafa still believes he has something to confirm.
He is basically out to confirm, just to himself, that he can win the U.S. Open Championship. Anyhow, just a fool would at the moment debate that we are not living in Rafa’s age. With already a total of eight Grand Slams at a small age of twenty four years, Nadal has at the least four more complete years of quality form left in him. Who can predict what destruction he could in the history books prior to 2013, a complete ten years from Roger’s start up Grand Slam victory?
In reality, with every Slam trophy that either man lifts up, he adds even more strength to the other's professional life. So Roger is perhaps pushing for Rafa in those major finals and Rafa for Federer. Out of the blue, a 7-14 confrontation doesn't appear almost as bad when you keep in mind the fact that the only player to have Federer's number is a living icon himself. A 7-14 confrontation appears a lot worse versus a player with two or three majors.
The analyst are of the view that Rafael Nadal will stay number one tennis player for at least fifty two more weeks in a row meaning by that the player is going to rock on the courts of New York next month as well.
