Very happy for Rafa!!! Even so, could improve. Hope he improves from match to match and wins, wins, wins ….. . Winning Madrid title and beating the top guys – djokovic, Andy etc. and ultimately Federer will be a super boost for his confidence and belief in himself. I hope.
VAMOS!!!!!!
10 MC titles and the best clay court player ever!!! Well done Rafael Nadal
10th Monte Carlo title! Take a bow champ. Simply stunning
Ah the cheering kid is so cute!
Hear we Go!
Yes it’s lacking a bit of excitement, but as long as Rafa takes the trophy i don’t mind. Feels like a first round match , 2 top seeds are needed to make a great final but respect to Ramos and I’m so chuffed for what he’s achieved this week
Me too maris
I meant maria of course
Not the best or most classic final I’ve ever seen but so far rafa is getting the job done and that’s all that counts
Yeah Susie. In the final I only care that he wins! Loving it right now. 😍
Crazy angle from Rafa!
3-2 40-0 Rafa leads
Rafa breaks!
I admire Ramos’s run at MC and expected a little bit better fight from him but he just doesn’t have weapons to hurt Rafa. His discipline and mentality are great but that’s not enough to hang with Rafa in a clay court final.
I just love it when Rafa steps in and comes to the net “this” often 😬.

Yay! An ace to close out the set. It should have been a bagel but this is really good enough. 💪🏻💪🏻
I hope Rafa speeds up his serves, we don’t need anything else for people to beat him with
Hi rainier – rafa’s doing OK so far
Hi Susie and Maria. Nice to have you here really 😊🍀.
Hi Rainier, this match couldn’t be going any better for Rafa, and respect to the crowd today
Brilliant – a break!
Rafa’s a bit unlucky that it’s cloudy and windy today :(.
