By the numbers: the career of Rafael Nadal

The tennis superman said stop. He says goodbye at the Davis Cup final in November.

Belgian

92

The Spanish colossus won 92 titles over his entire career (63 on clay). He has won 22 titles across the four Grand Slam tournaments, including 14 Roland-Garros.

82.6%

Rafael Nadal has an amazing win rate of almost 82.6% in his 1,307 matches. Only Novak Djokovic looks down on him, with 83.5%. The third alien Roger Federer reached 81.9%.

30

In particular, he lost or abandoned 30 Grand Slam tournaments due to physical problems, scattered throughout his body.

0

Rafael Nadal has never, out of anger or frustration, broken a single racket.

7

Nadal had seven key words to focus on: racket in left hand when entering court, bottles lined up, jump and splash when drawing, polo-slip hair change when serving , clearing the baseline and stepping touching the white lines.

The point of the game

Politicians, athletes, actors or pop stars, comments about the end of Rafael Nadal’s career came from everywhere. We praised his career, his behavior and his level of play “It was an honor to see you play,” said former captain Lindsey Vonn. A shared feeling, and rarely has a great champion found so much unanimous support. Talk to Novak Djokovic, the only player to win, with 24 titles, more Grand Slam tournaments than Rafael Nadal. Perhaps the Serbian must dream of getting as much love as the Mallorcan when he stops. Many players took advantage of the farewell of Nadal, who stayed at world number one for a total of 209 weeks, to welcome his resignation in their passion for tennis. We will also remember his friendship, a rare thing at this stage, with Roger Federer, for a long time his biggest rival, and the fierce matches against them (especially the Wimbledon final in 2008). Roland-Garros is officially looking for a new king.
