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.

are you sure somebody hasn't hijacked your id? these lines under you
id look totally out of place.


Not really. Arnab only cares about one "thing". All his posts are related to the thing. In this case, the idea is, if the thing cannot beat Nadal, then Nadal must indeed be by far the GOAT of clay because the thing would surely have destroyed any other clay-courter in history.

at 100-2 and 3 straight FO titles, it really is hard to over-state how good nadal has been on clay.





Yes, but given his age & form he could be just warming up.

Maybe he can win 10 FOs in a row & retire undefeated?

How's that for a legacy?
