The current World No. 5 won his 21st Major title at the Melbourne Slam last Sunday after defeating Daniil Medvedev in the finals. After going two sets down, the Spaniard made an incredible comeback and won the Australian Open title after 13 years.

In the column, Dr. Angel Martin hailed Nadal as an “extraordinary guy” who has the power to turn his “private sacrifices into great public recognition”. He also compared the Spaniard to the “ancient warriors of Troy” after witnessing his competitive spirit on the court in Melbourne.

Dr. Martin also stressed that along with his coaching team and “Uncle Toni’s lessons,” Nadal has devised an “infallible formula” that allows him to finish on the winning side on most occasions.

“Rafael Nadal is a colossal champion whose name is already written in gold letters in the history of tennis and international sport”- Dr. Angel Martin

In the same column, calling Nadal a “colossal champion,” Dr. Martin also stated that his name has already been written in “gold letters” in the history of the sport. He also remarked that the ‘King of Clay’ is an “elite athlete” whose “flame” will keep burning.

After his Australian Open success, Rafael Nadal will probably play at the Acapulco Open, which kicks off on 21 February 21.
