"You can learn so many lessons from a great athlete like that" - Jack Draper on Nadal
ATPThursday, 28 July 2022 at 14:00
Jack Draper is enjoying a steady breakout season on the ATP Tour with the British talent admiring Rafael Nadal for everything he has done.
There are certainly more shocking things than admiring Nadal in tennis but the number of players who look up to the Spaniard is still staggering. There is a very good reason for it of course, as Nadal has established himself not only as one of the greatest tennis players of all time but also one of the greatest athletes ever. Jack Draper certainly agrees and speaking about Nadal recently, he said:
"Just the way he [Rafael Nadal] operates on a tennis court and off the court as well. His attitude, I think everyone can see that in any sport. He is someone who fights hard for every point. He's a very humble guy. I think you can learn so many lessons from a great athlete like that."
The 20-year-old is hoping to add upon his breakout year during the North American hard court season where he can utilize his strong forehand and solid all-around skills.

- A lot of top players with injuries now. Could be a coincidence. Still we have a lot of big tournaments in 4/5 months.
AceOfBase06-05-2024 - Iga never gets an easy draw in any tournament she plays. So that statement is far from the truth. Sabalenka has difficulty because all she wants to do is stand up and serve. She is not a tennis player. If she gets the opponents Iga have, she would be ousted earlier.crissy06-05-2024
