7:13 That is exactly why many young athletes get lost..
People start praising them like gods when they win junior Championships, so they think they know it all, it gets to their head... and you know the rest.
"As soon as believe you are the #1, you inmediately stop being it". (Roger Federer)
just literally love how Tony has formed and shaped Nadal:
-to not take anything for granted
-to work hard
-to be conscious of where is himself in every aspect
Nadal's mentality both in and out of the court amaze me
And also never to break a racquet bcoz there are kids around the world who could not afford one
Tony needs to coach many of the new generation players.. they are like the opposite of Rafa! By the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might interest some people!
Nadal is so lucky to have uncle like Tony, all he did is for Rafa's success in tennis history.
It's now obvious that Toni trained Rafa as a mentally super tough player. Without him talented or not I don't think rafa would've come so far.. Huge respect for Toni Nadal. Glad he did it that way.

Cannot fault either of them !!!
I have coached high school tennis for 25 years. Rafa is one of my favorite role models that I use with my players. His footwork and court coverage is a great example because you have to get to the ball and be in position to hit it effectively like Rafa. Every shot has a purpose and placement to build a point like Rafa does. You have to get into your opponents head by running down everything like Rafa. Most important be a sportsman like Rafa and let your feet and racquet do the talking. I had the pleasure of watching lots of players since the 1970’s and no one runs down every shot or fights harder in long matches than Rafa.
It’s not over until the last point! ! 🌈
Helps that he takes an age between points to slow his opponents down and give himself 30sec recovery to play such a physical game. His time between first and second serves is also disrespectful.
@@room1recording not disagreeing.. but its worth noting his opponents also got the same break...b4 the shot clock was added, it was ridiculous...classy and humble guy tho
@@charlestontouch He also slows them deliberately on their service games and even stops them as they’re about to serve even though they haven’t even rushed him. That’s beyond arrogant tbh
@@room1recording dont disagree...rhythm should be at servers pace...i do NOT the slow-play routine...i still think he is a class act...having said tht, FED is the GOAT...in my opinion
Toni did advise his nephew to try playing with a left handed forehand. It's not unheard of for a lefty to play right-handed (Carlos Moya, for instance) or a righty to play lefty (Ken Rosewall, who wanted a better backhand). Rafa is otherwise totally right-handed for daily tasks and golf, but did play soccer left-footed. There's a documentary "Secrets of a Giant" about Rafa that claims he is right eye dominant. Playing a left handed forehand allows him to keep his dominant eye on the ball during the take back.
naturally righty playing lefty is heard of, but i wonder why a left handed Moya opted for right hand, because in racquet sports lefties have an advantage, wonder why his coaches took that away
Toni did not advise nadal to use lefty forehand both nadal and Toni have many times said that was false. Originally nadal had 2 backhands when he was young and all toni did was make nadal switch one to a forehand and naturally nadal chose left.
Toni DID NOT advise him. It was Rafa’s natural choice. He told him if he wanted to be in the top 10 rank, he needed to play with one hand. Rafa chose playing with his left hand because it felt natural to him, the same way he is a lefty futbol player.
No Toni, no Rafa. The way Rafa keeps his focus and balance during success and failure alike is due to the humility training that Toni have him in the younger days.

i think we all know when a kid has good parenting. we have to congratulate nadals parents and inner circle on bringing up such a complete and great person. an example for us all.
Well it paid off financially.
Nadal is worth over 200 million
Great work guys! Subscribed.
Legend came with work hard not just come with talents only. This is how we face life as well.
He trained him...backed by the financial support of his family. For the ones wondering why so many tennis stars are showing a bit of an attitude.
It’s endearing to know Rafa had a good support system even outside of his relationship with his uncle. Too often we sensationalise great men coming from tragic circumstances (not wrongly so) but it’s good to be reminded that people can achieve even greater things once raised in a positive environment.
Nadal had talent for the game and his uncle just so happened to be a great coach. I find this an amazing coincidence
Destiny
When the student is ready, master appears!
Tony very important to develop Nadal.

To form character on kids one needs to be HONEST, SERIOUS, OBJECTIVE, IRONICAL at times, VERY OBSERVANT, CORRECT, LOVING, HARD, but most importantly one has to know the need to keep their EGO down while instilling the belief on consequence, reality, and that a person is as good as their actions during hard times. Every single child on the planet would benefit from an uncle like TONI. I was going to write "God bless his soul" but it has already been blessed.
AMEN!
9:49 "To win the first 2019 US Open." Yes, the first of a total of one 2019 US Open. Oddly enough, only one US Open was celebrated in 2019.
Didn’t you hear? Every Us open is now the 2019 Us open
Ha ha - just some poor editing. Switch the word order from (the first) to (first the ) and it makes sense ...but the delivery needs a different emphasis. She apparently took the written text (with an error) and tried to present it correctly.
"I wanted him to know that everything he achieved at that age was not very important in terms of the bigger picture"
"I wanted to dampen the expectation. I wanted hum to know it was only a little step and if he wanted to progress he had to continue to work very hard."

Legend says Uncle Toni is dampening 22grqnd slams as well Lol
Tony DID NOT ADVICE Rafa to play left handed. STOP WITH THAT STORY!! They both have talked several times about it. Tony told him he needed to choose because there was not a single top 10 player with both hands forehand’s. It was RAFA’S OWN CHOICE to go with the left hand, because it felt natural to him, same as it is natural for him to play futbol with his left leg.
One more thing: “ll” is a letter of the Spanish abc, and it is pronounced as if it is a “j” in English, not as an “l”. Mallorca is pronounced as Majorca not Malorca.
Nice video btw.
‘I’ is pronounced like ‘j’ in English and therefore Mallorca sounds like ‘mayyorcca’. Get that right.
well said! and yes its Majorca
pronounced like a "y" not a "j". Do you call Michael Jordan, Michael Yordan?
@Coefficient of restitution It wasn’t his off hand as I heard he is ambidextrous, as in both hands/arms etc are equal
@@johnboy6799 no one is ambidextrous
Narrator has an English accent, but called football soccer. On top of that she didn't bother to learn the correct pronunciation of Mallorca which is Mayorca
She also mispronounced Miguel Ángel.
It really ENRAGES me when people say that coaches are not that important in the success of an athlete or team. Whoever says that doesn't understand sports at all.
Let's make an update to this video. 22* Grand Slams Now 😅 ❤️
Really interesting to watch this. Toni certainly saw Rafa’s potential and it shows that he did all that he could, to keep things in perspective for Rafa. I think that’s good going and they still have a wonderful uncle/nephew relationship. Nice one 💜😁🎾
Thanks, this was nice to watch 👌🏻
I wonder how Kyrgios' and Tomic' careers would have turned out under a strict coach like Tony
9:04 36* masters please check your facts, but I hope that he'll get to that 37th soon enough 🙏
What's does it mean he won first US Open in 2019 against Medvedev @timestamp 9:50
As far as I can recall
I guess he completed his career golden slam in 2010.
It means - He outlasted "Medvedev" to win his First US OPEN.
I felt the same and went back to listen again..she is actually talking about Medvedev in that line..
Bit Confusing..I agree
Rafa won his first US open in 2010
As someone else pointed out, the text should be "first the" rather than "the first": "he outlasted Medvedev to win first the 2019 US Open, then the Australian Open this year."
Hes the uncle anyone would love to have! Im glad they have each other, and always know and appreciate each other. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
You cannot forge steel on ice.
Well done Toni!
WOW GREAT DOCUMENTARY. AWESOME.
Never count Toni out for Nadal's success! Great coach and uncle!
Awesome video thanks
really? Calling football soccer (in Spain???), mispronouncing names of places and surnames?
Tony knew the full potential of his nephew and had to be intense, almost severe in order to shape Rafa. A great coach!
In applauding the greatness of vamos Rafa. We often forget the contribution of his uncle Tobi Nadal. If there was no Tobi Nadal there would have been no Rafa Nadal. More upcoming tennis players need to be tutored from Tobi Nadal.
3:10 Migue Angel Nadal.
Angel is not his last name. It is his middle name
For any success there is always a guidance n for nadal it was his uncle Tony.Love you man n hope everyone has an uncle(or a father/mother/brother/sister) like you.
Toni didn't advised Rafa to play lefthanded he said that hecthought Rafa was lefhanded in an interview because he play football with the left foot
Rafa was no doubt so disciplined which was evident from the way he kept his bottles and was so upset when someone deliberately kicked it down
In many ways Rafa is an unusual sportsman and human being - apart from all the character building strictures that uncle imposed he has learnt from the others around him... his football uncle and musician grandfather have definitely transmitted a lot of their goodness to him. Very few people pay attention to the fact that his champion/winning athletic prowess has deteriorated due to his congenital foot problem - they talk of everything but that. anyone else would have given up - whereas his medics have even let him play by giving anaesthesia to numb that pain spot... i feel he has just surrendered himself to the game and lost so much of his natural charisma because of that... anyways... his openminded comments about himself and his colleagues and his preference to be less politically opinionated - than his outspoken colleagues makes him a much more "real" individual... hope he is able to workaround his problems and return to his old ways for a long time :-)...
Totally agree man!!
well no, he is not "real" due to his non-political comments. I would think more of him if he wasn't always taking non-subtle swipes at Djokovic
@@als5482 Nadal comments about Djokovic when asked, and let's face it: Djokovic has given him a lot to comment about. His brutal honesty might offend a Djokovic fan, but maybe they should encourage Novak to quit doing things that get him defaulted from Majors or denied entry into countries, or hosting super-spreader tennis events in the middle of a pandemic.
@@broncoguy4862 it's not his brutal honesty that offends, it's his passive aggresiveness. Nadal is a small man, or as Medvedev would say a "small cat"
@@als5482 btw that was the only way Rafa could comment about the foolishness of rebelling against vaccine rules... no one can be actively aggressive in a question-answer situation... And whosever calls others "small" or "small-this" or "small-that" are in reality the "small" people... point the finger (literally or figuratively or verbally - :-) in passive aggression) and you are pointing 3 at your own self... medvedev himself realizes that his "small" comment was very foolish... he could have made a cool point about it - or not said anything at all ... but the rest of the world thinks that medvedev was very smart saying what he said to the ump... very sad...or may be that was being actively agressive... yeah that it was... the way he was fuming and shouting... stopped short of hitting the umpire... lol...
Nice video, the greatest ever 🐐
well then... i am surprised fed could beat him once..haha.. But his 21st proved what separates him from Fed. Fed up the match point and lost because he played too safe... Rafa never makes such mistakes...yes I am a Fed fan. We all have so much to learn from Rafa
Rafa lost many grand slams in 5th set being a break up. We only glorify is success but forget where he lost it mentally.
@@Shwetankdhyani being a break up is nothing compared to having match points
@@Shwetankdhyani you can only defeat players like Rafa when you play 1000 % better than Rafa plays
Nice video but it's too short 😆 😅
Credit goes for the both Rafa and Tony.
Rafa got educated to have the feet firmly on the ground and not be a jerk arrogant and loser! As many players are even winning
It takes even greater character to be focused and work hard af even when u have access to all the money he did.
1:10 Nadal is from Mallorca (not Menorca)
Given his attributes as a footballer, I'm certain he'd have made the GOAT debate three way race as well, even if for just a few years, until his cursed foot injury reared it's ugly head.
If only Naomi has an Uncle Tony like Raffa.
We always appreciate it once we’re adults
how did she say Mallorca ? Malorca?
Dang the nadal family got some great sports background in general
The sad truth is that borderline abusive coaching often makes great players. Tendulkar and Nadal are 2 examples of this.
These fine details do matter eventually.
"Easier to rely on Hard Work than talent alone"
0:20 muh LORKUH!
You are just reading the BBC article…
The world's greatest uncle! He did it for the love of Rafael!!
👏👏👏👏👏
I have to read Nadal’s book, hopefully it’s a good story.
Please look up how to pronounce Mallorca.
4:50 his opinion?
Nadal has "36" Master 1000... not 37 which is the Master 1000 Djokovic has.
What you are describing is child abuse.
🙄
Toni was born 21 february, not 17
I love Tony Nadal! Rafa was a great biography!
What's a first 2019 US Open? 🤔
Mmm, there comes this iron mind from.
22 now, and continue
It’s pronounced Mayorca
Tony Nadal was great in coaching Rafa but later he could have tried serve and volley which would have considerably reduced his running about and saved energy Was it not worth trying
Toni
I will follow your rules, i have no choice
I am a big fan of Rafa!!
There are many of us like you. I've been a fan the first time I saw him play in the early 2000. He's my all time favorite athlete.
Great CHAMPION and an equally great PERSON!
It's not pronounced mallorca ist's more like mayorka
Why did spain own portugal on the map
Rafa Nadel? 😂
The last statement in this video is what truly puts Nadal on top of all other primetime athletes today. Nowadays, almost every athlete is hypocritical playing the victimhood and oppression card in order to "amplify their greatness". Not Nadal. That's what makes him the GOAT.
2.01 not Nadal 😆
It's Toni in the background, the narrator is speaking on his career. However, the picture is an updated one.
Football, not Soccer. For a narrator with a British accent that should be obvious.
Why is this not considered abuse
No wander he has all those rituals on the court. Emotional damage is there. You don’t treat young kids like that. There is a lot of tennis players scared for life with family members not treating them right and well.
The difference is that Rafa could handle it in a possitive way and you can clearly see it in the relation he has with his uncle nowadays, his uncle knew he could handle it and made him grow as one of best and more revered sportsman in the world, because not only he is good and talented, he is also a very down to earth and respectful person. Something that some young pros in many sports lack.
No wonder so many WTA players are crying and having a breakdown. They don't have someone to toughen them up mentally. Life is not prefect, like Raffa said.
Rituals seem to me to bring the mind to a point of awareness NOW to remember to be in the moment.
Nonsense! Nadal is respectful, down to earth and not egotistical because of his upbringing. Treating kids softly and not giving them trials and challenges leads to spoilt, entitled, rude and weak kids who can’t face challenges! Life is not easy nor is it meant to be
Tobi Uncle knew if he had to make Rafa humble he has to toughen him up first. Where most of people gives up Nadal rises up to the challenge.
Almost as bad as Agassi’s dad
👍
I wonder if it was uncle tony who forced nadal into getting the jbb; did he know the insidious damage it would do? did he care? after watching the end of the IW final match, and the following conference in which nadal admitted he had chest pain; trouble breathing and dizziness. classic signs of jbb damage ie periocarditis; inflammation of the heart muscle and lining; not fixable. he said it was rib damage; i doubt it; they will say its something else; but a plethora of jbbd soccer players with the same symptoms who cant play and drop dedd during play or found dedd later is an omenous bell...
He had a fractured rib, Karen. And he won the Aussie Open (coming from two sets and a break down), with a jab ;)
I m coming for you 🤗
thats until this moment novak will overtake him
The commentator is very bad at pronouncing Spanish names and places in Spain. For instance, Mallorca should be pronounced as MA-YOUR-KA!
I wonder what he does physically to cope with such a heavy workload for so long, without it taking it's toll on his body? There are many athletes who try the same method but fail due to impact it has on their bodies resulting in being injury prone. Something Nadal has avoided only until the end of his career. Are his natural physique and mental strength god-given or is even this more due to training than luck?
Lol this dude doesn’t know much about Nadal. He has been very injury prone his entire career!!
what? nadal had a LOT of injuries during his career. He didn't take part of 13 slam if I'm correct because of injuries (and played many half injured). Djokovic just 4 (and one because the vaccination issue). Around 2013 if I remember correctly there was the first big change in his playstyle because he couldn't run anymore as he was used to do
Mal LOR Ka? Cannot this woman pronounce MAY-York-Ka? Annoying
ATP is TENNIS SLAVERY where top life-time earnings compare to single-year earnings in some sports. Djokovic's mistreatments are about PTPA striving to end ATP slavery - with no thanks to Roger & Rafa :(
its sad when Toni sat at Felix box and beat Nadal. He look so sad when his player beaten his little nephew
The overt church advantageously precede because knickers unusually introduce through a auspicious egg. numberless, spiffy tanker
Please, at the very least learn to pronounce in Spanish the names of the towns you are addressing. It is embarrassing to listen to you. “MaloUrca “ ? Please!
same hearing soccer all the time...
Easy to win Australian open when NOVAK is not playing.
Tell that to Medvedev :D
Is easy win for Rafa ? Are u saw the match 5 hours
How dare pseudo editor sign this piece of crap. This dumb video mislead with information at 08'41, a Flag of Spain over Portugal Republic borders (900 years old).
Miserable edition from whom doesn't have literacy enough to stay in information business. PORTUGAL FLAG 🟥🟡🟩
like cooking ingredients , 1 or few missing , it wont be so good plus luck too. How many nadals, novacks & federers in Africa etc.?
