Federer’s ex-coach Ivan Ljubicic was recently quoted in a report where he revealed how French young tennis player Arthur Fils informed him about the progress of the former world number one. "Nadal? Fils texted me that he is playing at a very high level. I still expect great things from Rafa,” he said.

Nadal is often regarded as one of the greatest players in the history of men’s singles tennis in the Open era, having won as many as 22 Grand Slam titles in his career. His most successful competition has been the French Open where he lifted the title 14 times. It is because of this reason he is renowned as the ‘King of Clay’.
