Rafael Nadal Playing Quotations

I'm ambidextrous when I eat. But playing tennis right-handed - I can't do it. I'm clueless.

I didn't want to lose this match for anything in the world. I think I was playing the ball at my best.

For sure, I'm going to play less matches because I think it's very difficult to win the same number of matches as last year. Maybe I'm going to play a little bit less, but I like playing tournaments; so if I feel good, I going to play for sure.

He's playing at a very good level, maybe right now at a top-five level. I think he's going to finish the year in the top 10 if he continues like this. If he plays good on clay, he has a good chance to stay in the top 5.

He was playing too well in the first set; very aggressive. I could do nothing.

He was playing with very good rhythm, but I can play with rhythm too if I feel good like today.

With Almagro, boy, that'll be a tough match. He's playing at a very high level right now and he hits the ball hard.

Gaudio is playing very well. Today he played at an incredible level, especially on his backhand. But I am only thinking of my own game, and of playing well.

This is my chance - it's the fourth set. Sure. if I go to the fifth I can win too but I was very near, very near to the victory. I was thinking about the victory, I was thinking about every point I received because he was playing much better and better.

He's in a good moment. When a player stays in a good moment with confidence, he's always difficult. He's playing good, for sure. He can stay in the top 10 because he's playing very good.
