After a long showdown of 4 hours and 20 minutes, Rafael Nadal has once again proved why he deserves to be called a "warrior" on the tennis court and G.O.A.T. Man never fails to surprise us when it comes to coming out of hopeless situations.
After facing the toughest challenge of the tournament and amidst serious abdominal pain in the second set, he still managed to outperform his American rival Taylor Fritz, who fought a long battle (3-6,7-5,3-6,7-5, 7(10)-6(4) ) to reach his eighth Wimbledon semi-final and his 38th Grand Slam semi-final, where he will meet first-time qualifier, Kyrgios. It would not be a hyperbole to say that Rafa has forgotten how to lose, with the kind of mental strength this man has where he continues to claim every untouched feat.
One of Nadal’s greatest attributes is his longevity. The tactician he’s become since 2017 is remarkable. Knowing that he’s lost a lot of his physicality and speed, he has more than made up for that with his clarity of mind, commitment to aggression, and his IQ. He’s truly a genius.
The win also keeps his calendar slam hopes alive, it will be exciting to see if the man on the mission can lift a title at the Greens. If he books the final with the Djoker, it could be one of the greatest Grand Slam finals of all time. Much remains to be seen and we can't wait to see history being made.
Vamos, Rafa!!
