I'm not going to give up on Nadal yet, we all know he's getting kind of old and injuries affect tennis players a lot since it's a one player game, but he's not the type of player to give up easily, he had his downs throughout his career and bounced back, I'm expecting him to win a couple of big tournaments before he retires, if his body doesn't bring him down, the mentality to win will always be there with El Matador.
me too - for me Nadal has always been a legend to me.
YOu are right he would not give up that easily - but that too is true -sometime the injuries are fatal and they kick off the players off their career.
Nadal has seen ups and downs in his career, yes, but that's what makes him so motivating. Despite the difficulties he faces, he never gives up and always manages to recover. It's also fair to state, in my opinion, that his injuries are having a negative impact on him and make it difficult for him to perform at the same level as previously.
And you're correct; with the emergence of youthful competitors on the Spanish circuit like Jannik Sinne, Casper Ruud, and Alcaraz, the rivalry is becoming more intense. It's challenging for Nadal to stay up with them since they are pushing the envelope and establishing new benchmarks. Nevertheless, he is a true champion and we can depend on him to put up a good fight at all times.
