Spanish tennis players have always been dominating the clay court but struggled on the grass. Rafael Nadal was also known as a clay-court player when he started his professional career. However, he soon evolved as an all-court player and became the youngest player in the Open Era to win all the four Grand Slam tournaments.

Nadal’s coach Carlos Moya also admitted that Nadal is a beast but still he was surprised to see Nadal win the Wimbledon Championships. Moya also hailed Nadal’s incredible mentality and explained that he was born with the fire inside him.

“I mean, if you can teach that, we will have many Rafas and we don’t have that at all. So that’s something that we, I mean, it’s amazing that that happened like Carlos (Costa) said, nobody could expect a guy from Mallorca to win 19 Grand Slams, 12 French Opens,” he added.
