Rafael Nadal is a man, who in his 18 years as a professional have tried a little of each. And the 33-year-old spaniard, do not question, that can go in the category of ‘silly’.
Such a he got on the English part of the press conference after his tosæts defeat in the first match at the ATP finals in London to German Alexander Zverev – of course, after he had praised the German for his great game.
But then tracked the conversation into Nadals recent wedding with his girlfriend over the past 15 years, Xisca Perello. About the wedding may have created turmoil in his life and thus had an influence on his game against Zverev?
The question impressed in no way last:
– Quite honestly, you ask me about it? Is that a serious question, or is it a joke? Is it serious? asked Nadal.
And when the reporter explained that the shame was genuine, had the spaniard just draw some lines up.
– Okay, I’m surprised. It is a surprise to me that you would ask me about such a thing, after to I in 15 years have been with the same girl and live a very stable and normal life.
– It doesn’t matter whether you get a ring on your finger or not. In my own way I’m a completely normal guy. Maybe it’s different for you – how many years have you been with your …
– I have a wife for 30 years, said the journalist.
The answer made Nadal to go to the reporter on the blade about why the reporter to begin with had given him the motives.
– And what about before that? Ah, maybe you within it were not completely safe. It is therefore. Okay …
– Now we go over to the Spanish, because this is bullshit. Thanks for the day, said Nadal.
