Toni Nadal: 1 reason why Rafa was struggling

Rafael Nadal is doing everything he can to find his best form as he had to overcome many challenges in the last few years. In 2014 Rafa had to cope with all sort of injuries and physical problems (the last one was the operation to his appendix), but this year there was something worse that has been hindering his results.

Toni: Rafa’s problems

Among the various issues that Rafa had to deal with, Toni believe that the Spanish Legend had to cope with a “dwindling” fighting spirit “This year he [Rafa] started bad and he did not play a good season. The problem was that he quickly lost his fighting spirit when things were not going well. For example in Wimbledon against Dustin Brown. But he is improving. At US Open (where he lost to Fognini), he played not much better, but he was again ready to fight. As now in Basel, against Rosol he started bad, but he ran and ran.”
