    Probably the greatest ever in terms of representing his own country. Davis Cup, ATP Cup, Olympics; it's just crazy to think how much he's done.

    The Spanish queen is either a great fan of tennis or a great fan of her country's son RafaNadal... she is there in many of his finals... good for him...
    so good to see those interview snippets - never found any of the 2008 beijing interviews in youtube or anywhere else - the one after djokovich semifinal is amazing - shows how much national honor matters to Rafa - he was trying hard not to cry... the interviewing girl told him not to cry... that she would cry if he did...great kid Rafa

    @SJ says 1:23 is a shot he has never seen and that who knows? We may have not yet seen his greatest shot!”
    My reply: Maybe we’ll see it on this channel. sLorca dug these interviews out of the cobwebs. So much fun to watch his brilliant thinking as he returns all the balls to the precisely perfect spots and then throws his magnificent body into the air with such powerful leaps. I never get over being thrilled watching and rewatching this marvel of human strength melded together with his boyish smile and heart of humility. It’s hard to imagine we will ever have another like him with such a combination of attributes.

    How I wish Rafa was still so confident and fearless. Those are the gifts of youth, which slowly get eroded, when you have a long career at the top. But wonderful to see peak Rafa again!
