Other instances of Nadal grooving

Shakira’s concert in 2018 was not the only time the ‘King of Clay’ showed off his smooth moves. Spain won the Davis Cup in 2011 after defeating Argentina, as Rafa beat Juan Martin del Potro in the final. To celebrate their victory, Nadal danced to the song “Ai Se Eu Te Pego” along with his teammates. Just as ever, Nadal’s moves were captivating and executed with finesse, and it was impressive, given he has no professional dance training.

In another instance, Rafael Nadal prepared for an exhibition match against Novak Djokovic by dancing with a member of the crowd. Nadal and the lady from the crowd performed salsa. However, the ‘Djoker’ was the one who initiated the activity. He danced with the lady before Nadal. Whatever one says about Nadal’s performance on the court, no one can deny that the Spaniard has excellent dance moves.
