Rafa raises the bar

Published on: 

Sir — Rafael Nadal’s 11th victory at the Roland Garros in Paris is a phenomenal achievement. To win 11 Grand Slam titles at a single venue is simply outstanding and extremely difficult to surpass. Although Nadal may not be as graceful as some of the players of yesteryears such as Stefan Edberg, Boris Becker, John McEnroe, Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors, his steely resolve, determination and hunger to win makes him one of the all-time greats of tennis.

Rafael Nadal has now won 17 Grand Slam titles but going by the way he plays, one can easily make out that he is not much worried that Roger Federer is on the top of the list with 20 Grand Slam titles.
