Over so many years, Rafael Nadal has earned an astonishing number of fans for his game and personality. Given that he has won so many grand slams and major tournaments, his fans were always there to support him, even when he was out of the sport for a while. And now his comeback has ignited a different energy in the fans.

Not just people on the internet, but many fellow tennis players also idolize the 14-time French Open winner for his remarkable record-breaking performance. And two of them are Alize Lim and Iga Swiatek. Both claim to be Nadal’s biggest fans and have given each other a competitive edge when it comes to idolizing Rafa.

Alize Lim’s fangirl behavior toward Rafael Nadal

A post was made on Twitter by Eurosport, which showed Alize Lim how she was watching Rafael Nadal’s first comeback match. From the post, it seemed like Lim was probably sitting in a cable car and taking a ride while she was out in this chilly weather surrounded by snow. However, instead of looking around, Alize Lim’s eyes were glued to the screen, as she did not want to miss her idol’s first win after the comeback.

Alize Lim also shared a photo on her Instagram story that said, “Had to watch Rafa’s first match back no matter what”. Eurosport posted this as their story on how she is Rafael Nadal’s number one fan and they hope her hands weren’t too cold.

This gesture of watching the match with cold hands while she is out truly shows how much she admires Rafael Nadal. Of course, this also gives heavy competition to his other fan, Iga Swiatek, who also had something nice to say about him.

Iga Swiatek’s appreciation of her number-one idol

A recent post that resurfaced on the Internet revealed how Iga Swiatek is and has always been a great fan of Rafael Nadal. Swiatek had said, “I really like Rafa Nadal. I have his T-shirt with his signature on my wall. The calendar with Rafa. He is my idol. He’s humble and has stayed the same guy he was before winning so many titles.”

The thing to note here is that Iga Swiatek is not only a Rafael Nadal fan because of his impeccable game but also because of the kind person Rafa is, which makes this whole thing even more refined. Who do you think is more of a fan of Nadal? Iga or Alize? Or maybe you?
