Rafael Nadal On Holding The Trophy
As you can see in the post, FIFA World Cup asked Rafael Nadal how happy he was holding the 2010 trophy compared to when he won the 2008 Wimbledon. Rafa responded by saying that he was very happy but he did not compare it to how happy he was when he won the Wimbledon.
