Ever since then, players like Jaume Munar and Casper Ruud who are from the academy have done very well in tennis breaking into the ATP top 100. Clearly, they have been successful which is why Rafael Nadal decided to expand. Instead of having just one academy in Manacor, he decided to open another academy. He decided to open his academy in Kuwait and inaugurated it very recently. We might see some top players from there too. From this trend, I think we can see Rafael Nadal wants to open academies all around the world. He wants to give the best coaching and the best facilities to upcoming tennis players. This is absolutely wonderful and we should see it continue for a long long time.

Toni saw in his nephew a natural talent and believed that Rafa should put effort into the racket sport. At the age of 8, Nadal was playing both soccer and tennis. In the racket sport, he transitioned to a left-handed forehand when encouraged by his uncle, despite being right hand dominant. Toni Nadal also intensified his nephews training at this age. At 12, he was still playing tennis and soccer. In tennis, he won the European and Spanish championships.
