Rafael Nadal vs Stefanos Tsitsipas UNBELIEVABLE practice match at 2022 Indian Wells

Rafael Nadal believes that his ability to adapt his game during matches has been a crucial factor behind his dominant start to the year, with the Spaniard arriving at the BNP Paribas Open holding a perfect 15-0 record on the season.
The 35-year-old has captured tour-level titles at the Melbourne Summer Set and the Abierto Mexicano Telcel presentado por HSBC, while he won a record-breaking 21st Grand Slam trophy at the Australian Open, edging Daniil Medvedev in a five-set classic in the final.
“I have always been able to find a way to adapt my game when I have needed to become better,” Nadal said in his pre-tournament press conference in Indian Wells. “Some days I have played aggressively, some days I have played a little more defensively and more tactically.
“My serve has been working well, which is important at this stage in my career. Then I think I have been brave enough to play with the right determination when needed. I am just working hard to continue to improve, but I am happy with the level of tennis and intensity I am showing on court.”
Nadal has enjoyed a career-best start an ATP Tour season and has won his past 20 sets in a row, dating back to the Australian Open.

Nadal litteraly destroyed Tsitsipas during this practice

[@tilmayne9780]

Really see the difference in return quality and backhand consistency

[@tilmayne9780]

@nah 🖤 Haha funny you call me Nadal fan :D I am a diehard Novak fan and was actually rooting for meddy in the AO final^^
But you have to admit tsitsipas has especially struggled with exactly what i mentioned: Backhand returns and backhand consistency

[@LetsPlayTennisTV]

I didn’t cut any points. 😅

Thanks for not including BGM in the actual practice.

[@brenhugh]

Seems to me, Stef still can't handle Rafa's high cross-court forehand to his single-backhand, but then again, not many can.

[@TheFlash3237]

Thiem may be the only player on tour today with a single handed backhand that can handle Rafa's forehand, especially on clay which is wayyy more difficult. And even still he makes a lot of error and leaves the court wide open to Rafa's forehand side.

[@plutone220696]

His backhand has always been a weakness, where he plays with all the downsides and none of the upsides of an OHBH, then overcompensates turning the shot into a vanilla, topspin heavy mess.
