    No young tennis player in history was as tactically skilled as a young Rafael Nadal, in my opinion.

    For a 16 year old to be on the same court let alone beat a top 10 player is insane. It’s not just talent, he’s a savant.

    It's unreal how a 16-year old can play like that.

    The Next Gens needs to realize how good Nadal was at just 16. Already beating top players of the time. Amazing

    Rafas explosive hitting & movement at 16 is a phenomena to behold ❗️

    Nadal admired and respected Moya so much that he was ashamed of beating him and says Lo siento (Im sorry) at the end of the match.

    It is crazy to think that this kid went and won 13 French Open titles and still has been beaten by only 2 players in 17 years till now.

    No matter how good Federer and Djokovic (as a Novak fan) are, you have to admit that nobody on clay is as good as Nadal.
