Rafael Nadal and his struggles with technology came to light during this pandemic period. The Spaniard is a champ on the court but as far as technology is concerned, Nadal is a beginner. Rafa doesn’t shy away from admitting his problems with technology and recently, Nadal had a great laugh about it.

During his press conference for the Rolex Paris Masters, the journalists and Rafa had a fun laugh on a technological incident. In his jolly mood, Nadal was staring at the screen, waiting for his questions.

But the journalists, instead of raising their hands on the video conferencing application, Zoom, were physically raising their hands. This created confusion for the presenter who had to select the journalists.

“Guys, you gotta do it on zoom not on video because I can’t see everybody,” exclaimed the presenter.

“Ok I am a little technologically challenged,” said a journalist.

“No worries, Cindy, I am the same. I have all these problems too,” a giggling Nadal replied.

Rafael Nadal and his troublesome experience with Instagram

A few months back, during the pandemic break, Nadal had gone live on Instagram. Wanting to invite Roger Federer and Andy Murray on the live show, Rafa had a long tussle with the application. The moment was hilarious for all the three players as well as the fans.

“I hope you guys are enjoying the Instagram live. As you can see I am a disaster,” Nadal said, referring to his technical skills during the Instagram Live session back in April.

To the above ‘disaster,’ Murray dropped in a cheeky comment that had everyone laughing.

“This is brilliant…He can win 52 French Open but not work on Instagram,” Andy Murray commented.

Finally, Nadal was able to get Federer on board and fans were mesmerized with the online version of ‘FEDAL’ during the pandemic break.

Rafa will play fellow countrymen Feliciano Lopez in the 2nd round of Paris Masters. Nadal is yet to win the Paris Masters for the first time and with many of his traditional rivals in Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic missing, he is a huge favorite for the title.
