Rafael Nadal News
Rafael Nadal, the world leader and the indisputable king of this area, honored his blazon last week when he was forced to play for the 11th time at the Masters of Monte Carlo. Nadal evolved impressively on one of the tours where he always felt at home, demolishing the competition and losing only 21 games on the way to a new trophy at the Monegasque competition.
Nadal tries to repeat the same bet in Barcelona, another tournament he has won for no less than 10 times in his career, trying once more to write history. Rafa started a bit with the brake, despite a new set of minimum wins, Nadal won 6-4 6-4 against Compatriot Roberto Carballes Baena, but he did not leave the same impression he left, over the past week, in the Wednesday match, as if a little relaxing in the game of the world leader. In the third round, Rafa returned to normal in a very lively victory against another compatriot, Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, but a dream match match for Nadal, a single-handed backhand whose mission to successfully respond to the monstrous spin on Nadal’s forehand side, being almost impossible.
