More quotes by Rafael Nadal
I live where I would like to live. I live in Majorca, Spain, and I am not sure there are better places.
Rafael Nadal
I am No. 8 in the world. I am not No. 100.
Rafael Nadal
That's painful always to lose.
Rafael Nadal
Don't think about being the number one in the world, try instead to get through today's program as well as you can. Then we will see whether one day you'll end up as number one or number 100.
Rafael Nadal
The US player Andy Roddick reaches speeds of 220 kilometers per hour when he serves. If I train with him every day, I will later be at an advantage against a player whose service crosses the net at 190 kilometers per hour.
Rafael Nadal
I just try to win the match by fighting for every point, and running down every ball.
Rafael Nadal
If you want to belong to the best, you need good technique and, perhaps even more importantly, a good eye. If you see the ball sooner, you have more time to think about how and where to return it.
Rafael Nadal
The only way of finding a solution is to fight back, to move, to run, and to control that pressure.
Rafael Nadal
I feel that love. I feel that energy. I always felt that energy when I'm playing in New York.
Rafael Nadal
If the girls and boys have talent and feel like working on themselves, they can become champions.
Rafael Nadal
It's more a tennis problem than a mental problem. The transition is difficult. It depends how much time you have. Playing on grass can sometimes be a bit of a lottery.
Rafael Nadal
In your career you have a lot of good moments and bad ones. The important thing is to have enough motivation to keep working all the days with humility and trying to be a better player than before. I am going to try to continue doing this.
Rafael Nadal
You have to accept both losing and winning well. I've stayed calm when I'm winning and I've stayed calm when I've lost.
Rafael Nadal
Confidence is the most important thing in this sport, and the confidence from winning Wimbledon would make it easier to win the Olympics, too. Either would be very difficult, both even more-but the player who wins Wimbledon will be the favorite for the Olympics. It can happen.
Rafael Nadal
I am not the most courageous guy in the world outside of the court.
Rafael Nadal
Tennis is beautiful when you can see tactics, when players don't just react but are able to act and think.
Rafael Nadal
We should try to teach the young people values that are useful to them whether they become professional athletes or not.
Rafael Nadal
It is no longer enough to play very well. You need to be able to give an answer at all times and everywhere. You cannot hide. This has something to do with maturity, and that is something you only acquire over the years.
Rafael Nadal
Two weeks ago, I was in a fantastic situation, winning at Roland Garros. Now, losing in the first round, it's tough. The tour continues. Life continues. This is a sport of victories, not a sport of losses. Nobody remembers the losses. I don't want to remember the loss.
Rafael Nadal
Anyone could become a star, but everyone must be a human being.
