Great video man, really love this channel and hope you and your family are doing good, thank you
Thanks for the kind words buddy ❤️
This Rosol guy acted in Wimbledon like he had beaten Nadal in French Open lol. weird guy.
You do not mess with Rafa, period!
5:20 "you should never count him out until the match is over" this line is perfect foreshadowing for the AO final lol
Haha i know right! ❤️
@@KnightFox1000 yeah this video was published before the AO final.
Lucas Rosol is nowhere to be seen or heard from. Meanwhile, AND 20 GRAND SLAM TITLES LATER, here is Rafa. He has landed in Melbourne for AO22. It is so good to see him back on the tennis court. Nadal Is My Champion!
OH YESSSS, I am so happy!! 🍀
Fresh comment here
nadal is very awesome, so is roger
And he’s living in your head rent free. Congratulations.
@@davd1986 Yes, Nadal is always on my mind. I hope he comes back strong in 2022.
That comeback in Basel was insane. Rafa is always classy. But you know you're too bad of a guy when he does a cold handshake with you.
Rafa employs his own tactics aswell. He's been honing them for 20 years I suppose, Hes the poster boy and no one dares say anything about it. These other guys are just not as good as him at the dark arts
always classy? Definitely not.
Rafa has a fake image
It's hard to call Rosol a cheater, but that's just because it's almost impossible to cheat at a professional level. However he was very unlikeable, and employed very nasty unsportsmanlike tactics.
Murray of of course infamously said "no-one likes you" directly to Rosol.
But another one was Berdych, who was asked in a press conference about "the Czech mentality," and he responded by saying "I hope you are not comparing me to Rosol."
If your own countryman hates you, then you've definitely fucked up.
This video didn’t rlly explain what Rosol did that made him a cheater. Could you please explain a little bit what he does?
@@xxdxma6700 The video explained very well how Rosol cheats. He taps his racquet on the court to disrupt his opponents and he knocks over their belongings.
hello oh I thought there is more to it. I guess that’s just more playing dirty instead of ‘cheating’ or wining points in illegal ways
Michael some people suggest Rafael Nadal is capable of disrupting his opponents with his strange antics and Novak is not pearly white either as Andy Murray could testify.
Unsportsmanlike? absolutely. Unlikeable? perhaps, but he is in no way the "biggest cheater" in professional tennis, not even close. Technically speaking he broke no rules and therefore did not "cheat". There have been actual cheaters like match fixers, dopers, illicit drug users etc. so how is he wearing the crown? I'm sorry but I disagree with you on this.
Davidenko probably is then king here.
I guess some find it hard to see their idol getting blown away by an unknown guy. Nothing wrong with Rosol. I saw that match life. It was simply his day and Rafa was never untouchable in Wimbledon
@@fabienh3943 "nothing wrong with Rosol." Yeah, okay. He wasn't exactly the definition of a sport. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you're not a Nadal fan.
@@FRodriguez_ Why would that impact my opinion on Rosol? Tribal?
Pointless video, stupid analysis.
What cheater?
Evidently Nadal an idol for many, but don't be such a butt licker. It is a game,it is a sport. Watch it, enjoy it. If your idol loses then wins the next time, be happy.
One has to be very good at tennis in order to play Nadal.
Waste of time is this video, for sure.
It's always difficult watching a very bad sport especially if he ends up getting under the person's skin. Well done Rafa.
how it's bad sport you're a snow flake buddy
What is the rule about handling your opponents gear or drinks during a match.
@See A G Thanks.
@@lnz971 not cheating but definitely very poor if that is the best you can do.
Its like going to a fancy restaurant. Spitting on someone is assault and spitting in THEIR food is also a food tampering offense. But if you spit in your OWN FOOD while they are looking in your direction to annoy them is legal----but it will still ruin their dinner. You may put someone off their food, but you have made yourself into a repulsive animal while doing it.
"He's been doing that all match" is the dumbest ruling. Means you can cheat as long as you cheat every time.
But is that really cheating though?? Rosol tapping his racket: it is very annoying but not necessarily cheating. Maybe I'm missing something.
@@yakzivz1104 Me too. To dub him the ‘biggest’ cheater is a bit much. Some element of gamesmanship can be expected from most players. Nadal has his delaying, fidgeting and OCD rituals also. Others have bathroom breaks, squabbling with referees or linesmen, false injuries, threats, shouts, grunts-all sorts of things
@@yakzivz1104 My understanding is that something done to deliberately disrupt the server is against the rules...?
I think the umpire meant that since Nadal had not complained the entire time, it was not seen as a hinderence?
What really is cheating about what he did? He played by the "rules" and did what he did to gain every little advantage he could get. Similarly one could argue the times that Rafa was taking like forever between points at the disdain of other players, especially the fast-paced ones was his version of gaining every little advantage he could get, so was that too cheating?
I've been a sportfan for over half a century. When Rafa stops competing you will never see anything like him again, nothing better in tennis than watching Rafa in beast mode versus Roger Federer, I never wantwd those matches to end
Djokovic 😎
@@georgecota1720 Djokovic has certainly hit some heights, he's close.
@@peterbarlow3084 I'm was joking. I'm a Djokovic fan, but if I'm honest I think Nadal is better
@@georgecota1720 lol, he's really good though 👍
@@georgecota1720 first djoko fan I see saying that xD
I'm praying our guy will have a very good season this year...
21🏆
Good start
Warra start
22🏆
That reaction of Toni does let me think of the set point against Djokovic in the US Open final 2013, that epic point with Rafa’s amazing reaction
Even murray said to rosol that no one on tour likes him😂
Really Murray said it to him..? When was that happened..?
@@richardkrivik7032 there is a video yes
“Even Murray” 😂He is not known to be prince charming himself but yeah Rosol was a dick, luckily he retired.
@@richardkrivik7032 czcams.com/video/WxtNxV4yZeE/video.html here is it
@@Vikingnartists exactly😂
As much as I love Rafa and dislike the Rosol guy, I would say he plays dirty instead calling him a cheater. There's no way a tennis player can get to such close scores against THE Nadal if he wasn't at least a decent player.
yup - Rosol took sets off Rafa everytime it seems - maybe a nobhead for some "gamesmanship" but you have to hit those winning shots..
What's dirty about Rosol's game exactly?
@@fabienh3943 he beat Nadal, unforgivable to the Nadal Kool Aid crew
@@vidpromjm a cheat is still a cheat.
@@fabienh3943 did you even watch the video?
And NOW Rafa is the FIRST to reach 21 Grand Slam titles and when was the last time you heard from Rosol?!?!?!
22. Yes. No one knows who Rosol was. People remember good behaviour and manners. Tennis is a gentleman's game.
FIRST!! Awesome work my friend, I know how much time you spent on this one
Thanks brother 🙏🙏
I like how Rafa picked up Rosol's racquet for him after losing at Wimbledon. His OCD just couldn't stand a racquet being out of place at the end of the game.
Also ADHD. Even after two hours of playing his legs are shaking during break time. Too much energy.
or it could just be respect for the game of tennis and respect for the opponent.
Thank you for this. Brings a smile to my face and gives me a better understanding of this resol fool. Thanks again
Love this story! Our hero came through! Love to watch Nadal play!
I’ve always hated Rosol. This type of people are the worst
Everyone hates Rosol!
All I'm glad of is that he's in a slump right now.
@@mariodavalos1 Andy Murray made that remark lol
@@mariodavalos1 I don’t
Very much happy and thank you for showing this video!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Nora!
Rosol would do anything, anything to disrupt an opponent. Whether hitting his racquet on the floor before his opponent serves, to knocking over Rafa's water bottles, he was one of the most disliked players on the tour. Those are head games to be sure, but not cheating.
‘Head games’ don’t mean it’s a fair game though. Not trusting your game and relying on your opponent’s distraction to win feels like cheating to me 🤷🏼♀️
@@lu9175 I get your point. Gamesmanship isn't cool. To experience, but watching it can make for an interesting match. Athletes in every sport try to get into their enemy's head or under their skin. It can be all part of the game and all's fair in love and war. If I'm Nadal though, I'd want to wring Rosil's neck.
@@c.d.macaulay66 Well this might be true. Here I think the worst part was him knocking down the water bottles knowing Nadal’s ocd. If it was anything else he did maybe it wouldn’t have made him look this bad but that was really a low blow imo 😕
Still fair game. If you can use mental game and get away with it. The others opponent done nothing to fight back. Still a fair game. You're too dumb to fight and can't handle against a mental game against the one will used any egde to win a game including head games. Still a Fair Game. If you win against that kind of player, you're meant to be the best ever.
Knocking someone's water bottle is cheating imo. You do not touch the opponents water resource.
Like Andy said, “everybody on the tour hates you.”
Love that you added Murray at the end. :)
Really loved the video and the naration. Truly original content. Thanks and Keep it up...👍
Glad you enjoyed it buddy ❤️
Deliberately knocking over someone's drink bottle, what-a-low-life. In the end the best man won. Best of luck Rafa in the Grand Slam men's final Sunday 30 January, 2022.
Rafa won.....God bless him and s his fans with such great matches in future too.
less goo he won
Probably not the worst thing someone has done...
@@guitaroso exactly! Mind games are “bad sportsmanship”, not “cheating”
Yes, it's nearly as bad as manslaughter. FFS, these pros are supposed to be tough as iron, so someone knocking your bottles over should make you think they are not strong enough to beat you so they resort to that....far worse things happen in sport. Like ppl think that Nadal hated Kyrios for underarm serving. He actually thought it was a good tactic and applauded K for doing it. PPl need to get their priorities right.
As Murray said, “no one likes you on the tour”. It applies perfectly to Rosol, and he’s ironically nowhere to be seen.
Not sure how I got here but I enjoyed the presentation & video. Thanks alot. 👍👊
I am from the Czech Republic and I can not stand Rosol. He's a dirty player.
WOW! Thank you for that comment. If you resort to dirty tactics, to win, then you DIDN'T WIN! Rosol is nowhere to be found. It's as if he fell off the Earth and never came back.
@@andyroo9381 That's because you cannot escape Karma! He was cursed!
I am Czech and I like rosol, he’s a unique character
If a player has to resort to dirty tactics then they're lacking in skill and know they can't beat you straight up.
Love the reaction at 6:38 🔥🔥🔥
I wouldn't call it cheating exactly, just a guy being an ass and playing dirty, because he knows his opponent is the best and he needs to get under his skin to have a chance at winning. He is a pretty good player, just his attitude sucks.
Look at Tsitsipas, very good player, but his attitude is abysmal as well as his manners. Some players just lack respect.
What does any of this have to do with cheating?
I know not one instance of his cheating . He may have some unsportsmanlike behaviour but I find the screaming from some players the worst kind of behaviour .
Exactly… grunting when hitting the ball is the most annoying thing. I didnt see cheating here.. maybe some uncomfortable tactics.. but not cheating. Clickbait??
Its total BS. Rosol should sue for defamation;)
Every minute of a football (soccer) match is more 'unsportmanlike' and full of 'cheating' than that guy's antics on the tennis court. Did he ever smashed the racket or cursed his opponent? Not in this video. How about Kyrgios, McEnroe, Connors, Nastase, Tsitsipas, Medvedev and others? Did he ever receive a penalty for his 'deplorable demeanor'? Biggest Cheater? = Lance Armstrong.
Andy's brit honesty held nothing back, telling Lukas Rosol loud enough for all to hear: "No one likes you on the tour, everyone hates you" 🤨 That's gotta hurt.
Rosol : No one likes you in the tour!
Andy: Everyone hates you! 🤣🤣🤣
Andy is also a hated ponce ...so he should know 😆😁
@@krishnan-resurrection714 it seems they are both disliked in the tour hahaha!
Andy’s actually a Scot! Big difference.
@@krishnan-resurrection714 Andy is not hated, where are you getting that from?
Seems kind of random that it's considered unsportsmanlike to tap your racket on the ground but not to grunt loudly after every shot.
Well done to you for your VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEOS...THANK YOU SO MUCH! 😎
Murray at the end there…savage 😂😂
I love Rafa watching him play is really bliss for my eyes May God give him good health and more titles. he is such a great person on and off court 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
lmfao andy murray though at the end
bro that outro (the former intro) is just legendary!
keep up the good work. great guy representing the heart of tennis, rafa nadal
not missing out on federer and nadal of course but rafa's mentality is bulit different
he's the kobe bryant of tennis
You should make more tennis documentaries Wivorn! You're good at it!!!
Thank you! Surely I will ❤️
These guys hated each other. The match Rosol beat Rafa at Wimby was an insane match for Rosol. I’ve never seen anyone flat out destroy Rafa like that. But Rafa is the legend so…
Loved your narration as well. Great video
Thanks buddy
Your videos are great, dude. Well done!
Thanks, David!
I think the bottle knock over is actually hilarious.
Nadal laughed at that weak attempt by Rosol.
As much as I hate to admit it, I busted out in laughter when Rosol did it. Yes it was very rude of him to do that and he should have apologized.
Tapping his racquet on the court during one match and one instance of knocking over the opponent's bottles does not make Rosol the "biggest cheater" in tennis, not by a long shot.
@@tiborzkarate1 ...couldn't beat him?
Seems there is a little bit of frustration because he DID beat him.
@@tiborzkarate1 Exactly.
You just proved my point that you were incorrect by basing your theory on a false proposition that he can't beat Nadal.
Very nice dokumative video :) good job
Always a great match when you get two of the best, Roger and Rafa competing against each other. It doesn't matter who wins, it's the game. They're both superb players and two of a kind.
My favourite ❤ player.such a great guy..if he hadn't had so many injuries he would be way ahead of 20 grand slams.i wish him every success 👍 😉
22 atleast for sure plus AO this year guess would be 23
@@MasterMurga ..Good call mm......22 slams an a shame he had to pull out of Wimbledon semi finals goin for 23 - he truly is 1 of the gods of tennis 🎾 🙏 an a humble guy go.....legend comment mnm
I had forgotten about the racket tapping, so annoying! Definitely the umpire’s job to stop that. No other player does that, or click their fingers as the opponent is about to serve.
I don’t see what is wrong with any of that? I can’t even see how something like that is cheating. Is not like someone doing any of these, will make the ball move different or creating different wind or so on. It’s almost like a habbit for some players to keep their concentration or focus to defend at the opponent server. But doing one of them, could cause them a delay on trying to reply on the opponent server if their opponent is fully focused and does their server as they trained for.
Excellent video as always man. Why do you sound like Maurizio Sarri though? I'm not kidding, look him up, same texture, similar accents!
Hahaha now that's new! I've been told I sounded like Ibrahimovic and Mourniho.. Now Sarri as well that's very cool 😂
@@WivoRN oh now that you say it, you do sound like Ibra as well! Especially the a dent
Good video :)
Thanks for that
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Doesn’t matter how many grand slam Rafa have compare to other players he’s always my champion
I'm not sure that there's evidence that Rosol is 'Tennis' biggest cheater'. There is undoubtedly friction between the two players, and having seen the wimbledon match, I can understand that Nadal would've felt bad about losing in that way. Tapping a racquet on the court is something that the chair Umpire should've stamped on, but didn't. It all worked out in the end due to Rafa's skill, personality and motivation. He and Federer have been the true Gentlemen of the game and such good role models.
"Tennis' Biggest Cheater" I thought this was going to be about Kyrgios.
True
Great content as always
Thanks 🐐
Great Video - muchas Gracias!
How do you compare the three best players of today over a long period of time with each other if a player has 2 better chances to win statistically each year out of a total of 4 competitions.
Statistically, should Novak win 50%, Rafa & Roger 25% each?
All three are fantastic personalities with extreme qualities, great respect for everyone.
But my favorite is Rafael Nadal !
"Game over clown", it's what Rosol told Nadal after 2012 Wimbledon. You portrayed it perfectly here with the pic lol
Has he really said the same??
Proof ?
@@tonyrata4796 He didn't literally say it lol, im kidding. And neither did Rafa.
@@The_Great_One Excellent !!!
Great video👍
One of the best videos l have ever seen on CZcams. Really interesting and so well narrated. Be proud of yourself for this
Thanks you so much! ❤️
Make a similar video on Nick kyrgios and nadal , I have rarely seen nadal that animated in a second round match of a major
Drop his bottles, and he's gonna drop you in the rankings xD
"Tennis' Biggest Cheater" is extremely misleading.
This video is very biased.
Never count rafa out. He just proved that again at the australian open final.
Great video!! Love Rafa ❤️
I have been a devoted Federer fan for the past 20 years or so, but now, I must admit/say that Nadal has finally stolen the great man's crown from him (in my eyes that is). His immense sportsmanship, admirable humility and gentlemanly manner, as well as, of course, his utterly brilliant, ever-tenacious, purposeful, persevering, and unrelentingly committed match play, rightfully (in my eyes) makes him the GREATEST EVER player.
Oh, I forgot to mention that majestic and utterly fearless, lion-like heart of his! 😍
Thank you Mr Nadal for sharing all that you so magnificently and wondrously are with us all. We have all been so immensely privileged to have been able to bear witness to your unparalleled Mastery and Greatness throughout these now many years.
Yours with the utmost of respect, gratitude, appreciation and immeasurable thanks, beyond the scope of words to convey.
Blessings upon blessings to you Great Sir, today and always 🙏
Djokovic has stolen the crown from nadal tho
@@yantherussian7350 Well, we might agree to disagree on that.
The fact that Fed beat Nadal in the AO and 2 more times after in the last few years make Fed a greater GOAT than Rafa
@@MJ-zd7yw Each to their own as they say.
@@MJ-zd7yw I would travel a thousand miles to see Roger play tennis but I would not cross the road to see Nadal or Novak .It is a question of style, elegance and charisma which is difficult to describe but you know it when you see it.
loved it. thanks
That's 11 minutes of my life il never get back🤣 I thought it was full on
People like Djokovic, who take tactical medical time-outs and toilet breaks just to upset the rhythm of their opponent, when they themselves are struggling are worse than this guy.
djokovic is greatest cheater off all time,, goat of cheaters,,,,
The King!!! 🎾🏆🇪🇸
Lukas Rosol announces retirement from tennis at age 38
Never seen rafa and Tony celebrate so hard let alone for a second round match .....maximum salt 🧂
Now that ladies and gentlemen, is how you make a great CZcams Video. Great story, well told. Nice plot twists and additional extended info. Loved it!!
Thank you for such an encouraging comment ❤️
Between Rafa and Roger I'm not really sure who's the classiest and most humble. They are both the best ever. Now and forever.
WivoRN, love your stuff. Where are you from?
Thank you! ❤️
Egypt 🇪🇬
What a fine story and a great presentation! 🎾
Thank you ❤️
So how did Rosol cheat?
Those 4 Straight GS Finals after the injury was hella impressive😳
2013 RG Final
2013 US Final
2014 AO Final
2014 RG Final
You missed Wimbledon 2013 where he didn’t make it
that's not straight mate
Nadal takes 60 seconds between serves, and Rosol is the unsportsmanlike one? Give me a break.
I saw rosol in a challenger in India a few years back. It was cool because these incidents hade made him very famous, especially in a challenger event
WOW- your editing is really good man
Thank you ❤️
What about rafas endless bouncing with the ball and fondling with his hair? They all have tricks to try to break the opponents concentration.
Did we forget the result of imitation of R.N.'s "rituals" by St.?
very good video
good job with the video!! i as well love honest, respectful, humble players that dominate a sport and still are as humble as Rafa or Federer!!! two of the greatest for sure - especially because of their great attitude and approach to the sport!!! ... but to call Rosol 'tennis' biggest cheater' is a little exaggerating and clickbait-style don't you think?!!! there have been and still are players that are way worse than this guy!!
what a shame Rafa won't play Wimbledon's half final against Kyrgios today!! 😪
thanks for the videos, bro!! keep it up!! 👏
It seems that if someone really acts like an a$$#0£€, it gives Rafa even more motivation to beat them. Essentially, he gets angry, and when he does, he has energy, and then he focuses that energy in a positive way.
Edit - LMAO. You just had to throw my favorite clip of Murray in there. 😆 🤣 😂 😹
It's pretty hard to really piss Rafa off but I dare say knocking his bottles over would be a way.
@@manwithadronespain someone did that, and he laughed at it. Lol
@@manwithadronespain even moving them a centimetre would do that
6:19 as small a move that is, it’s an incredibly big gesture. Very dishonourable tactics.
My favourite player of all time. Not only a remarkable player ,but remarkable person
Yeah I'm a big Rosol fan as well.
@@PNETriffid me too
That deliberate knocking off of Nadal's water bottle by Rosol is really mean! Go Rafa!
Not really into tennis that much, but knocking over a couple of drinking bottles and hitting your racket against the ground means you're tennis biggest cheater? Seems a bit harsh.
He’s not really a cheater, just kind of a prick
A bit unfair on Rosol. Nadal is an offender himself when it comes to irritating the opposing player deliberately... His OCD serving tactics, constantly slowing play by bouncing the ball before serving. Rosol broke no rules, unlike Nadal who's had a few time violations in his time.
You do great work, sir.
Thanks, Steve!
The names Nadal & Federer are synonymous with the terms Sportsmanship & Gentleman
That guy will never be remembered, one lucky win means nothing. Nadal will always be the champion and what tennis fans remember.
Nadal is indeed a champion but I don't think there is a whole lot of luck in this game. They played and he won, period. After all, several other 10s of 1000s of players won't even have a video made about them, less be remembered for anything at all. He will always be there somewhere in Rafa's story and that is something.
So true 😂. One of the greatest of all time. Love you 😘 Rafa Nadal. Go on and win about 4more GSlams before you hang up your racket. 👍👍👑👑🙏
Great stuff man. Respect 🙏 I really do wonder if you have the same mindset about the video about goat debate, i would really appreciate that if someone so humble as you, thinks about from another perspective guys like me ✌️🙏 please i would be really happy, and sorry for my english. You can find the video i updated it two days ago on my channel 🙏
Thank you for the kind words buddy, I'll surely check it out!
Thank you!
I thought it must have been about Djokovic. The returned Serb😂
Quite odd but I met Rosol 2-3 times during practice at the Bundesliga Tennis practice here in Germany. We play MEN30 and play at a lower league and they were having a chat with us. Really friendly and kind he was.
Bionic One I think Rosol is a good player and to describe him as a cheat is completely wrong. In my opinion Novak is more likely to be described as a cheat.
I want to have Rafa's inner warrior mode. He is fearless on these courts.
excellent excellent
from winnipeg, canada...
If my opponent knocks my bottle down, I'd laugh it off, all the audience seeing it is enough punishment
