Toni Nadal
Some people have double identity, some have an alter-ego, some a Jekyll and Hyde syndrome. Rafael Nadal has his uncle.
I can't think of any player in the history of tennis who made such crucial impact and contribution such as Toni did with his nephew.
Without Toni, Rafael would probably be playing a sweeper for the B Team of a local Mallorcan football club.
We know Rafael has little tennis talent. He has athleticism, strength and speed. The real talent who won 11 slams has the same surname, but a different first name.
He talks of himself in plural. He coaches his nephew during matches. He speaks on his behalf to the press.
What else does he do?

Re: Toni Nadal
In "their" latest interview, he even has the cheek to comment on Federer's injury :
"Federer has beaten us more than once with Rafael having significantly more pain than Roger was in at Indian Wells. I'm clear that the situation of Federer at Indian Wells was no worse than that Rafael has had on many other occasions."

Re: Toni Nadal
Toni Moribundus has been training his nephew with only target and that was purposely targeted on beating Federer. When he saw that Mori can do it only on clay he just urged organizers to slow down the surfaces with Nike's help. But he just forgot that his Mori can not play this moonballing style for a long time. Therefore nobody should feel sorry for his patela or anything else connected with his juiced body however it is sheer nonsense that it hampered him from playing for 7 months. Even if he had an issue then it is only thanks to his moronic style which he was learned by his wise Toni. No sorry for him at all.

The nerve!!
At least Federer is injured,he isn't pretending to be injured or lying about being injured after losing

Re: Toni Nadal
This is an amazing interview. It did a lot of good to my rusty spanish.
Interesting to read that Wilander did not think that Nadal would get back to the top. And apparently neither did Toni.
You can clearly tell Toni doesn't like Federer.
But the most hilarious is when they ask him what he thinks about this new Bio passport antidoping method. Guess what he replies!!! "I don;t know what it is", I don;t know much about doping matters!"
Genius. He probably doesn;t know which products are prohibited either!

Re: Toni Nadal
Treating Rochus of imbecil and uneducated is mean. Apparently Rochus talked again about silent bans for Nadal and Soderling.

Re: Toni Nadal
Toni Nadal is a jerk, a cheat, and an arrogant git. Sooner he and his nephew are history, the sooner tennis can recover. I can't wait for that jealous pair to be erased.

Re: Toni Nadal
I found part of the above interview translated in English.
Toni, for all his "unique" ways, at least has no problem saying exactly what he thinks...and I admit, he is a lot more interesting than his nephew...
"I am thinking that there is a lot of explanations for this problem. Today, we live in a world of images. To simplify, we see a player [who plays beautifully] and think he is a good person in life. Instead, we see someone be more brutal or jerky, less fluid, and it is said that it is the same outside the courts.
I think Rafa still has a good image in France. L’Equipe gave him the award for best sportsman of the year, he often makes the front page of the newspaper...No French [athlete] makes the "A" sports newspaper in Spain...Except [soccer player Zinedine] Zidane, when he played for Real Madrid. I conclude that the French still enjoy Rafa a little.
I would say I am an idiot if I did not feel dissatisfaction at times. But much has changed I the past two years. One day, a tournament director told me at the end of a match: ‘I am very happy that Nadal has won. Unlike his opponent, Rafa is the same, whether the camera is there or not.’
He’s not hypocritical. Rafa is a good man. What happened to him against Soderling, it was just unthinkable. A four-time winner of Roland Garros cannot be whistled against a player who was not exactly the friendliest in the world! The French love the beautiful game. Rafael is Spanish, it is another [game]. And he also beat Federer. But for me, it is normal not to be enjoyed by everyone."

Re: Toni Nadal
I am not sure what he is trying to say. Federer has a lovely game but is rotten inside while for nadal it is the opposite? Or does he refers to Djoko as he mentions "in the past 2 years"?
Not surprised the TD of the FO is for Nadal, they work hand in hand with Babolat and make everything easy for him.
The French are desperate to see Nadal lose at the FO. And this is ahead of us and it will be a relief when this happens.
