More quotes by Rafael Nadal
I don't expect never an easy match. I always expect difficult matches.
Rafael Nadal
I was shy when I was a kid, I was very shy, but now I think I've improved a lot. I can speak OK with the media and with the people. My English is still bad but I feel a little bit better now than before.
Rafael Nadal
I'm not the best player in the history of tennis. I think I'm amongst the best. That's true. That's enough for me.
Rafael Nadal
I've stayed calm when I'm winning and I've stayed calm when I've lost. Tennis is a sport where we have a lot of tournaments every week, so you can't celebrate a lot when you have big victories, and you cannot get too down when you're losing, as in a few days you'll be in the next tournament and you'll have to be ready with that.
Rafael Nadal
I'm delighted with the way I'm playing at the moment
Rafael Nadal
My serve can get better, for sure. It's not just about serving bombs, but positioning, variation in speed, in spin.
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
It's the same old story, all you think about is money.
Rafael Nadal
I'd rather lose an argument than get into a long discussion in order to win it.
Rafael Nadal
My motivation and aspiration is the same, being number one or being number five. So that's the truth. And my goal is the same - it's to always be happy playing, it's to enjoy the game and improve always.
Rafael Nadal
You know, a lot of things changed. What never changed is the illusion to keep playing tennis, the illusion to keep doing well the things, and the illusion to be in a good position of the ranking and play these kind of matches.
Rafael Nadal
Everybody is doing the best things possible to still healthy and to play as long as possible.
Rafael Nadal
I like a lot of sports. Especially football - it's my favourite sport. My uncle played football in Barcelona for nine years and played for Spain in three World Cups.
Rafael Nadal
It's hard to say, 'I don't believe in God.' I would love to know if God exists. But it's a very difficult thing for me to believe.
Rafael Nadal
It should not be a child's only goal to become the best player in the world. That would be a bad, a harmful attitude.
Rafael Nadal
I am very lucky because when I come back home, I have a completely normal life. I can relax, playing golf, fishing - doing what I want. I know when I finish a tournament, I am going to relax at home.
Rafael Nadal
I feel that love. I feel that energy. I always felt that energy when I'm playing in New York.
Rafael Nadal
The glory is being happy. The glory is not winning here or winning there. The glory is enjoying practicing, enjoy every day, enjoying to work hard, trying to be a better player than before.
Rafael Nadal
I love the beach. I love the sea. All my life I live within - in front of the sea.
Rafael Nadal
My tennis is aggressive, though I wouldn't say that it's more physical than technical. I rely more on technique than physique, but being physical is always a help to me.
