PHOTOS: This is Rafael Nadal’s Wimbledon 2021 Nike outfit

Nike has unveiled Rafael Nadal’s new outfit that he’ll be wearing at Wimbledon 2021. Following the Wimbledon tradition, our champ will be sporting all-white with touches of black on it. As you can see, along with the Nike logo, the famous ‘raging bull’ was also designed in black.

    You’re welcome.

    I will repeat David’s words, “Some haters have invaded our site. From now on [I] am ignoring them completely.”

    Why not elevate him/her to “head coach?” 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂

    “Rut?” Yes! Reminds me of a broken record where the needle is stuck 😂😂

  3. For those of you fans who have been here forever, we’ve had many discussions about Rafa possibly adding a sports psychologist to his team. As I see it, there could be plenty of reasons why he may not consider that.

    Rafa is in charge of his destiny. How he approaches his remaining years on Tour, and I hope it’s many, we as fans can only hope he chooses the best path to keep him playing and loving competing.

  4. Some haters have invaded our site. From now on am ignoring them completely. I will just state that there is no tennis player mentally tougher than Rafa Nadal. He might be the toughest in all of sport period. He has proven it time and again over his 16 year career.

    As for being a clay court specialist this is just a feeble attempt to diminish his incredible achievements at R.G. By that logic Djoko should be called a hard court specialist having won 12/19 titles on that surface.

    Besides many pros have stated that clay is the most difficult surface to construct points on. Even without his 13 titles in Paris he would still have 7 G.S.‘s. The next ones after him would be Andy and Stan with 3 each.

    Rafa stands atop the list as greatest role model to not only athletes but everyone else as well.

    • Yes, it remarkable how so many discount Rafa’s 7 non-clay Slams. Most players don’t even win 7 Slams. Well…since I’ve been following Rafa and I’ve been with him for almost half his life. 4 USOpens, 2 Wimbledon’s, and an Aussie. And that’s only the Slams. He’s just WONDERFUL.

  5. I for one am happy that Rafa is taking time away. I can watch Wimbledon in peace without the emotional involvement that comes with rooting for my champ Rafa Nadal:):)

    That’s funny whoever said that Rafa withdrew from Wimbledon with a ‘mental injury’. Funny not funny. Guys, if Rafa retired today, I would be happy to know that he gave us his everything.

    I think Rafa has suffered more physical injuries in his career than both Federer and Djokovic combined. And yet our champ returns each time and gets it done for us. It takes a toll on his body and inevitably seeps into the mind.

    The only valid what-if scenario really, is what if Rafa had been relatively injury free during his career? I’m sure he would be miles ahead in the H2H against Djoker and Federer, with many more tournament wins.

    I’m saying that, any mental scars Rafa may have, is not necessarily due to who he is playing, but a result of his physical limitations compounded over time. I see him hit some shots and think, WHY CAN’T HE DO THIS EVERY TIME!!??!!

    Rafa has always bounced back. And I believe that he definitely will in this case as well. I don’t care if Djokovic wins Wimbledon or surpasses the slam count. They are on different life paths, and Rafa has made the most of his opportunities especially with the obstacles he has had to deal with physically. What else can we ask for?

    Marijnt, we all want Rafa to win everything. But foremost let’s be respectful of each other here and agree to disagree when we have to.

    Enjoy your time off Rafa. And I hope you return with a EMMER EFFING VENGEANCE!!!!

    • Rafa has indeed suffered more injuries than Roger and Djokovic put together Mac. Like you, I have no doubt that, but for those injuries, Rafa would have won many more titles, including more Majors. A couple of years ago one of the commentators on TV pointed out that Rafa had withdrawn from NINE Majors through injury, which is way more than the other two.
      We can’t change any of that but it does demonstrate Rafa’s great strength of character and unquenchable desire to compete and win at the highest level that he should come back from those injuries every time and win. These are all marks of a True Champion.
      Rafa has already achieved far more than he and we could have hoped for. Much as we want him to carry on winning, we must recognise and accept that he can’t win every tournament that he enters at this stage in his career. Win or lose we know he will fight for every point. We can’t ask any more of him than that. Let’s enjoy all that Rafa brings to the court whilst we still can. He will be a long time retired!
      I just don’t understand why anyone claiming to be a Rafa fan would derive any satisfaction from criticising Rafa’s efforts now, as he approaches the end of his very long and extremely successful playing career, especially on THIS site.
      Please, let’s give Rafa a break!
