The King of Clay Nadal needs time to set up his shot and strategize against his oponents.
In 2013 French Open Daniel Brands spared no time in getting the ball back to Nadal.
Returning the ball as early as possible reduces the time for Nadal to strategize.
Nadal easily hits when given a high loopy topspin but he struggles when the ball comes flat. This is the strategy that Robin Soderling used against Nadal at the 2009 French open.
