Watching Nadal in his elements on clay is an awe-inspiring sight. I
haven't seen such a package of stamina, determination, speed, physical
aggression, mental strength, iron defense, court sense and a sharp
mind always aware of the slightest of opportunities in a long time. He
is relentless, and he is still improving.

yes. he's definitely the 2nd best clay player of all time, behind only borg.

and he might be better than borg, too.
