  1. Rafa
    Lots of luck and I wish that you win the Award well deserved.
    I voted for you. Vamos Rafa.
    Tu fan siempre.

  2. Just cast my vote for Rafa who most certainly is always underrated by the voters of these awards. Roger even gave him a shout out at last year’s Laureus awards saying Rafa was equally deserving of the recognition.
    If there had been a female category would have chosen Ash Barty who will take over #1 position in the rankings with a win tomorrow at Eastbourne. Seeing as she and Rafa were victorious at RG would love to see them both repeat their feat at the Championships.

  3. For sure, I´ll vote for you as The Best Number One King Tennis Player ever, C. Javier

    • Rafa has been my King of tennis on any surface since 2002. Am dreading the day when this Superstar hangs up that racquet.
      Best Wishes Rafa from an Irish fan. Vamos Rafa always.🇪🇦🎾☘☘

    • Raphael Nadal is the best Male Tennis Player. Best Female Tennis Player is Simona Halep, Naomi Saka, Sofia Kenin, Madison Keys, and Miss Stephens. Are up there but I go with Simona Halep for women.

  4. He is the best player Rafa vamosssssssssssss champ ❤️💪😘🎾🌎🎾😘❤️

  5. Roger is a great player, but he wins this award whether or not he is the best that year. I already voted for Rafa, since I think his clay season last year plus RG were incredible.

    • setinthepast, I know a little more than zero about football/soccer but I do know about Gareth Bale. Saw him do a phenomenal goal a few months ago while I was channel surfing.

      It reminded me of the time I discovered Rafa so many years ago when I was riveted by his unbelievable reflexes and court coverage. Yes, I was channel surfing. LOL

      RAFA FOR THE DOUBLE

  6. It’ll be great if Rafa wins the award, but right now i’m more interested in his physical well being.
    Rafa reported that he had to stop a practice session earlier this week due to “muscular overload”, which is mainly due to the switch in surfaces from clay to grass and the instaility of the grass. Thank goodness he was ok to resume training later in the week on Wednesday and Thursday.

    • Of course I voted for Rafa as I believe that no tennis feat is better than his 12th RG title. Nevertheless, if I were a better I would bet that RF would win the prize whether deserving or not.
