- Nadal had one of his toughest defeats of his career in 2009. He had never lost in Roland Garros, but Soderling made it to then get to the final and lose to Federer. Next year, Robin defeated Federer and got to the final once again, where he would face the king of clay. The story wouldn't be the same this time. Like & Subscribe for more Tennis content!

💪💪💪
Monfils and Tsonga confirmed that Nadal had angina in the 2009 match with Soderling. Had he been healthy, he wouldn't have even lost that one.
@@delriver77 Really? He had Vagina in 2009? That'll do it every time. Every boxer knows you never have it before a match. Guess Rafa is a bit slow?
Rafa at his best is unbeatable at RG
Tbh rafa at his absolutely worst was beaten only twice
Unbelibable
At his worse too
Indeed!!!
He was at his best in 2009. And also in 2011 when he almost lost, and on other years. Many times proven he is beatable. Beatable, but hard task, and if the player who has the chance does not believe in it, like Del Potro, or Djok, or Isner, then you lose the opportunity and the confidence of the court return to this very very good player. The Swede had proper mentality when he was on great day.
You just know 09 ate at him for an entire year. He had something to prove for sure and he went flawless that clay season, attaining the first ever clay slam (all 3 clay masters & RG). All the 5 set dramatics at AO and some physical epics with Novak during that clay season really took their toll on him in 09. But he was so much fresher in 2010 and moving so much better and almost as aggressive as his godly 08 RG campaign. When he's on, healthy and motivated, its like going up against a tornado. Soderling was no slouch though, he'd fry pan the crap out of those balls. It was awesome to see Rafa rise to the occasion, from the ashes anew, quiet the doubters and start off a 5peat.
If you read Rafa's autobiography, you'll know that travelling back from the AO, his father told him he and Rafa's mum were separating. Also you know from the book that his family means everything to him. The news devastated Rafa, it took him many, many months to recover his emotional equilibrium, and I'm convinced it played a large part in his defeat by Soderling. He just wasn't his usual self, mentally.
@@michelez715 True. That was definitely another major factor. That definitely destabilized him and took away his focus: his family life instantly turning upside down on him. Just seemed like a confluence of things went against him that year, which sucked. At least it made 2010 all the more sweeter I guess.
@@michelez715 True, but between that news about his parents and the Soderling loss at RG, Rafa still managed to win Indian Wells, Monte Carlo and Rome and play the final in Madrid. He was still putting up very impressive results in that period.
It was a really bad yr fr him with so many physical problens
You should write a blog buddy
I'd surely read it
But Rafa doesn't do revenge. Believes it's just silly. For him, Soderling was simply the opponent he needed to beat in the final. 😁
😁
Right 👍
100%
Classic NADAL!
How Tio Tony trained him
Amazing
They didn't like each other, it was not just an opponent to win. It was a personal war beetwen two of them. You can see more about that on internet and i rememberr also Nadal had personal issues with him. One of the reason Soderling def Nadal at FO he managed to get into his head.
RN’s 2009 defeat to Soderling was truly one of the greatest upsets in Slam history. The guy had already won four on the spin (not to mention the previous Wimbledon and the AO of 2009).
Rafa when he's on a mission, especially against someone he doesn't particularly like, is absolutely dangerous.
Lol. Are you suggesting that players should be afraid of making an enemy of him?
@@JiraiyaSama86 YES 😂
@@thebigsquirrel50 kinda reminds me of when Wolverine got introduced in X-Men movie.
"Anything goes. Just don't go below the belt."
"I thought you said anything goes?"
"I know. But if you do, he'll make it personal."
😂😂😂😂
He must love Dustin then, because he doesn't show up against him.
@@dayostical from what I've seen, he doesn't dislike him
Rafa is the consummate professional, giving his all in talent and manners. Upset him at your peril, and our delight 👌
I remember as a young Rafa fan , I was so sad that Rafa lost to soderling.... But the revenge was indeed sweet!!!
Nadal proceeded to beat Soderling at the 2010 French Open final, 2010 Wimbledon QF, and 2011 French Open QF. Nadal won all 3 of these tournaments. I think Nadal more than made up for that one random fluke loss at a Grand Slam to Soderling in 2009.
A força mental e física do Rafael Nadal é simplesmente incrível fenomenal!
1:28 Some of these commentators man. This guy watched Nadal dismantle Federer multiple times, Djokovic, big servers, great baseliners at the French for 5 years, go undefeated in his entire clay season, but acted like Nadal doesn’t even have a chance to beat Soderling.
Also the point at 5:01. You can’t play tennis any better than that. That’s why Nadal is unbeatable.
That's just Mats Wilander, he's known for bone-headed, and frankly, stupid-ass comments like that.
Rafa ain't afraid of Soderling of all people.
Its crazy how you still see commentators doubt him even today and act as if he cant problem solve and reduce his opponents to human rubble on this surface at will. Its beyond frustrating how little he gets his just due to this day. Not every one of them but there are always a few boneheads who think they have him all figured out and buy whoever's hype that comes along.
@@ElReyDeClay They’ve gotten a bit better about this more recently, but they always talked about his defense. That’s all. They acted like he was talentless and brainless but since he “tries hard” and is fast, that’s why he’s great. In reality, and as we’ve seen especially these last few years, Nadal is one of the most aggressive baseliners ever. He bullies guys around the court, he rarely misses when he’s attacking because his strength allows him to attack with margin, he’s an absolute machine at net, and I’d argue he’s the best tactician of all time. The reality is, he’s more well-rounded than Djokovic and probably even Federer. He has the best mix of offense and defense of all time. Hell, on clay he’s probably both the best offensive player and the best defensive player of all time. That’s how good he is. The only things that have held him back are his serve (which he’s fixed) and injuries.
@@unowen7591 supposedly, but he's really just bad overall. I don't know if he does commentary anymore, but I haven't heard from him recently
@@thebigsquirrel50 He definitely still works for eurosport. Commentating, doing studio analysis etc

Wish many more FO for Nadal.
The most humble champion I've seen.

@@Laland_1196 His time is over. Everyone's time comes to an end. He will probably end up with 22 Slams and 14 RG's
@@aparajitroy629 let's see in 2024
I saw this game live and it was surely one of the most strategic of his career, against a player who knew how to play him and could beat him at the best moment of his career.
Mats Wilander: Does he actually believe that he can match the power of Soderling? I don't think so.
Rafa's sweetest revenge against a Swedish commentator as well.
Soderling was definitely a big hitter, but to say that kind of a thing for the greatest clay courter ever, on Phillipe Chatrier, just because of 1 loss the year before, its lame and such a shame.
Mats Wilander makes lot of dumb statements
He talked about power. Nadal has great power, but relies. Also on very fast legs, greaf power, and great amount of top spin.
Wilander was right tho, Nadal's strokes aren't as powerful as Soderling's, but Soderling just heavily relies on his strokes, whereas Rafa has other attributes to himself.
Yeah, but this was in 2010. and not 2021. when he has 2 game lost now.
Fabulous
That little run around his backhand makes Nadal so lethal on clay.
What a strange career Robin Soderling ended up having. You got the sense he was coming into his own in 2009, and backed that up with a stellar 2010 season. And then he all but retired after 2011. I read his article where he spoke about struggling with anxiety and mental illness, so I'm sure that took a toll, but I think had he found the tools to deal with these struggles he definitely would have won a Grand Slam.
It is because Nadal broke him mentally. Nadal beat Soderling in the 2010 French Open final, 2010 Wimbledon QF, and 2011 French Open QF. I am sure that if Soderling had beaten Nadal even one more time he would have continued his career. He thought for the longest time that he was special when he beat Rafa at the 2009 French Open but he saw with his own eyes that that was one of the greatest flukes in sports history in the 3 Grand Slam defeats afterwards.
@@nogoodnameleft ... no. He got Mono, which severely fucked him up and messed with his body (think it still does). Give Robin some respect here, man.
@@nogoodnameleftnadal made soderling mentally ill?😂 listen I love nadal certainly one of The goats but his ignorant fans are the dumbest ones of any athlete I know
He was very rude especially with Nadal. Hurt people hurt.
Obviously he had mental problems .
@@mariapilarme I think Nadal was rude to him instead and stories were made
Algunos puntos son inhumanos, no he visto ningún otro tenista que pueda salvar tantos y tan seguidos y acabar ganando el punto. Es una maravilla poder verle jugar a ese nivel. Para el rival es un suplicio claro.
???? ... Coincido en que Nadal te traía pelotas inhumanas, pero su tenis era muy basico... Otra cosa que no me gustaba era que cuando ya tenía ganado el punto, parecía como si le tirase la pelota al cuerpo a su rival, cuando bien podía esquinar tranquilo su tiro.
@@LuisLopez-fo6hx jaja no se que partidos has visto de Nadal, a veces era muy superior y decir que era muy básico, no sé, no lo acabo de ver, manejaba muchos tipos de tiros, y ha ganado en todo tipo de pistas, lo de tirar la pelota al cuerpo... Pues no me suena que fuera algo ni mucho menos habitual, todos habrán hecho eso alguna vez, lo que si hacía mucho era jugar con pelotas altas o bajas dependiendo lo que le molestara al rival, y no veo que puede haber de malo en eso. La verdad que sí puedo decir que Alcaraz ahora ha sido un soplo de aire fresco, porque al final la juventud hace mucho.
No niego lo del efecto pero si tengo que definir a Nadal como jugador es un 70% defensa y 30% todo lo demas... Cuando ve que no puede ser superior a su rival empieza a aplicar su clásica defensa... No es un juego vistoso carece de técnica.
@@LuisLopez-fo6hx pues aunque no lo creas para defender también hay que tener técnica, sobre todo si la sabes aplicar a un buen ataque luego, y eso no lo hace cualquiera. En fútbol uno de los mejores aplicando defensa más ataque es Modric, ahí es nadie. Nadal siempre ha tenido buen ataque también, hay infinidad de peloteos memorables. Lo que pasa que un partido es muy largo y si tienes ese tipo de táctica y te funciona contra un rival es fácil que la quieras usar sin tener que recurrir a un mejor juego, pasa exactamente lo mismo en el fútbol. Sólo que tiene la contrapartida que contra rivales complicados te pueden reventar, y a la larga no me extraña abusar de ese tipo de juego le haya perjudicado físicamente con tantas lesiones. Pero ya digo eso es técnica también, no era imponente o no lo parecía pero a los rivales les complicaba tanto o más cuando jugaba más defensivo.
Ronalgordo Ya cuando dices que no era IMPONENTE o no lo parecía apunta a que no superaba a sus rivales por juego, Si no por defensa, no digo que por ejemplo si te sirve no lo usas, pero en cuanto a disfrutar su tenis la verdad que no pero si hacía que los partidos se alargen y los iba desgastando a sus rivales. Gran sacrificio fisico, defensa, contragolpe en lo demás muy limitado.
Nadal was not well, physical and mentally, due to knee issue and parents divorce, in 2009. So lost. In 2010 Nadal was a very different opponent .
River Jamir, you're right. On the way back from AO 09, Rafa's Dad told him abt the divorce, and it destroyed Rafa. It took him a long time to come to terms with it, and it surely affected him that year, along with injuries.
@@michelez715 Hahaha the injury-card excuse! You rafa fans also use the injury-card excuse for the wawrinka loss in Australian Open 2014 and the loss to Djokovic in Roland garros 2015.
Shame on you.
And if rafa had lost Roland garros this year, you would have blamed on injury, despite that rafa probably was 100 % phyisically and 100% mentally fit the entire tournament.
@@scottwarren4998 Absolutely correct!
By far the best of clay of any generation.
Nothing comes close to the RG 2020 Final against Djokovic. That was the sweetest revenge for RG 2015 and AO 2019. The 2018 Wimbledon semi was close. Could have gone either way.
Revenge for AO 2019 for sure as both players were in great form then and that was a surprising beatdown. RG 2015 was different, Rafa was just having a horrible year and that was when Novak was in peak form, playing some of his best ever tennis. Everyone knows that 2015 was not the real Rafa, just as 2017 was not the real Novak.
@@ashleythomas4112 Great point.
AO 2012 Final with Rafa and Joker was one of the best ever too. 6hrs and some change. Unbelievable!!
@@ashleythomas4112 Federer 2013
Nadal 2015

So the lesson to be learn it's very simple,miracles doesn't happen all the time my fellow folks and friends brothers and sisters. 👍
Rafa was sick during the match versus Soderling in 2009.
Absolutely, Soderling never stood a chance in the first place
unowen7591 No
@@unowen7591 He was sick in 2009 and 2015 was one of his worst years, when even Murray beat him on clay once or twice (which goes to show that he wasn't in a good year).
Neil Dixit Of course, 2015. season was his worst ever... But the match and comeback against Rosol in Basel was the moment when he started to play better by every next match. Good memories...
@@unowen7591 Yes, he was sick then as well. But he was absolutely fine in 2017 and was defeated brilliantly by federer's magic in Aus Open. He was well placed to win that Aus Open.
In my opinion, he has been never defeated at RG. Its a mind-numbing record.
In shape Rafa is literally unbeatable at RG.
This was a sweet victory. I remember hoping Rafa could keep producing, but never thought it would be this long. My only hope now is gets one more Australian Open, so as to win every slam twice.
You got your wish! Lol
@@LeakproofPanic I'm surprised.
Pues ya lo ha hecho, i tanto tú como yo estamos contentos💪💪💪💪💪💪🎾🇪🇦

Revenge against Soderling : 3-0 in 2010 final
Revenge against Djokovic : 3-0 in 2020 final
And a 6-0 score against Djokovic in 1st set
Yes
And now that Djokovic has created history by defeating him in 2021 semis, he will revenge at Wimbledon or US Open where Nole is favoured.. or maybe revenge at 2022 RG
Poco se habla de esa final de 2010,de las 20 para mí, fue en la que más me emocioné, y también porque no decirlo me emocionaba al mismo tiempo que me cagabs en la puta madre de los parisinos que estuvieron en 2009. Se me saltaron las lágrimas
Fue un público impresentable...
Q gran jugador Nadal el mejor jugador de la historia en polvo de ladrillo!!
Nadal is by far my favorite player to watch.
Soderling's break point conversion in the match was 0 out of infinity.
Nadal,el mejor deportista español de todos los tiempos.
Verdad

@@steewieve846 hemos dicho mejor deportista español. Y mejor que Novak y Federer es.

NADAL IS THE BEST G.O.A.T
*EL MEJOR DEL TIEMPO!!*
And that’s when Federer finally won after losing to nadal.I don’t know how many times
On clay? Every time! But, as Rafa has said a few times, when Roger beat The Sod to win RG and complete his career slam Rafa was so happy for him that he wept tears of joy. That's the kind of person Rafa is.
@@marilynwasserman9860 No ... Federer's beaten Nadal on clay 2 times (out of 16, so not that great is it on paper). Never at RG in 6 meetings ... 4 finals and 2 semi finals. Rafa really is a great sportsman, I agree.
@@marilynwasserman9860 really?
Awesome
That really sucks, even in 2022 he only has 3 losses in the French Open, 2 to Djokovic and 1 to Soderling
This man is a legend! Period!
Rafa ia a class act 👏 🙌💯
NADAL is *THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER!*
The BEST final of Nadal, second 2020.
Now he did history again in the US Open.
This version of Rafael Nadal was unbeatable.
He won three consecutive grand slam titles beginning with the 2010 French Open.
In my opinion, this was the best six month period of Nadal's entire career.
Federer forever grateful to sonderling
Yeah😂
Fabulous
Soderling has to be the unluckiest player. He was finally coming off age, making it to to Q/F of almost all slams in 2009-11 period before he was forced to retire prematurely due to glandular fever at the age of 26-27. If not for this notorious fever he would have definitely nicked couple of slams in next few years since he was not a one surface wonder and he was performing well even on grass and hard courts.
I agree. He would have won several slams. Such a loss for the sport.
Nadal has won in other surfaces as well, and many more than that other guy who's gone now and will never be in history at the same level as Nadal 🤣🤣🤣
it wasn't only illness that made him retire. he had a bad psych for tennis. he always had anxiety and stress from tennis, event at home.
the big 3 can relax better at home.
Nadal always had the best outfits. I do like the sleeveless and long haired Nadal from 2005-2008 the most because of nostalgia and because he was iconic.
And Nadal went on to win that year's Wimbledon as well. Defeated Berdych in straight sets in the final.
Grandissimo Rafa Nadal 🔝💪❤️
¿Soderling?
Lo único que hizo reseñable fue ganarle a un Rafa mermado y falto de frescura. En este partido se demuestra quien es quien...
Vamossss❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fabulous
And rafa also beat him the next year in the quarters
Not a Soderling fan but wished he hadn't succumbed to early retirement. He played the part as the villian, and would have liked to have seen him play Novak and Thiem at the French Open. I think he would have fared well against either of them.
Depression happened
At 24 years old he was regarded as king of clay❤️❤️❤️🎾🎾
Soderling is like Stan, very heavy and potent shots on both wings. Also go down in history as only 1st man to beat Rafa @ RG. Rafa beat him repetitively after that lost @ Wimbledon too👌🏾
Fight = Nadal
Determination = Djokovic
Tennis = Federer
Marketing = Federer
The king 👑 of Clay RAFA NADAL !! 💪🏼🇪🇸
2010 Nadal, serving bombs. Best version of Rafa ever. 3 Majors.
It's amazing how Rafa changed the forehand swing at 2010 compared with 2009
Love the court level views
At this time I wish Nadal would win the tournaments he has never won, The Miami 1000, the Paris 1000 and the ATP finals..
In the 2nd set facing a break point with Soderling up 1-0, the defense that Nadal played to set up the winning volley to save the break was incredible. That point was ridiculous, Soderling must have been frustrated
The point that ended at 5:16
Gratitude for this posting ...just dope
Soderling was never heard from again!
Rafa crushed Soderling so bad he quit tennis after this.
Thanks to Soderling, Roger won his only FO.. Else, Rafa would defeat Roger in FO even before the match starts with his aura.. So thanks man.. coming from a Roger fan 😊
That early times Rafa in Roland Garros seemed to play away in the Davis Cup because of the french spectators. Fortunately nowadays he is appreciated by them as he really deserves.
When I started watching tennis, my favourite player was Robin Soderling! What a shame his career came to an end so early!
The player who benefited from Soderling's early retirement was Wawrinka who would be coached by Magnus Norman!! Norman was Soderling's coach when he went to back to back French Open finals. He would coach Wawrinka to 3 major titles including his 1st when he would defeat Rafa in the '14 Australian Open final in 4 sets.
What is a shame is he was (and still is) so jack....ss. Sorry.
Robin soderling is the most helped person for Federer career slam
La plus belle revanche de l'homme au 21 grand chelem. Surtout que Soderling était connu pour être très arrogant. Je pense que là, il a remis les pieds sur terre, au propre comme au figuré. Vamos Nadal. El campeon. El mejor de todo Los tiempos.
This really was the sweetest revenge
And now 14! OUTRAGEOUS!
What a pleasure when Soderling beat Nadal in 2009. Of course, Nadal said he was injured but he was not
The PED supplier must have got a serious bollocking after he lost to Soderling!
La humildad, la nobleza, la grandeza de Nadal en unos segundos: 0:56 - 0:60 , cuando Rafa se retira tras su derrota frente a Söderling saludando a un público miserable que le habia hostigado durante todo el partido. Söderling nunca ganó a Nadal on clay, sino un público parisino absolutamente antideportivo y canallesco.
Here after the 2022 victory, surely he likes to take revenge. The QF victory against Djokovic was delicious. I guess you cannot beat Rafa Nadal on clay repetitively.
Let's remember: Nadal war injured at that time. He played no at 100%.
He was in his career best form in 2010 sir.
@@arslaanpasha3334 i think he means in 2009 when he lost
Hahaha the injury-card excuse! You rafa fans also use the injury-card excuse for the wawrinka loss in Australian Open 2014 and the loss to Djokovic in Roland garros 2015.
Shame on you. It looked like rafa ran around just like normal vs soderling in RG 2009.
That was the biggest upset in the history of all sports, if we go by the numbers.
Soderling seems like a squandered talent. He had the game to beat Fed and Nadal wonder what happened.
He had a case of mononucleosis that went untreated for a long time, then it got so bad he couldn't recover well enough to get back on court.
he got sick. He also had a bad psych for tennis. Tennis made him get anxiety and stress even when he was at home in his house. He couldn't relax.
the big 3 can relax when they get home, soderling couldn't.
Que bien jugaba soderling, me hubiera gustado seguir viéndolo en el circuito, una lástima que se haya retirado tan temprano.
He defeated Soderling in 11” RG as well.
Yeah in QF i think
SE HIZO JUSTICIA-RAFA UN DIOS DEL TENIS 🎾
Soderling no habría sido capaz de derrotar a Nadal en París si Nadal no hubiera jugado lesionado en aquella famosa final. Tras la final, Rafa estuvo muchos meses sin poder volver a alas canchas.
No habría sido capaz? No supongas en vano, nadie sabe lo que hubiera sido de ese partido si Nadal hubiera estado "bien". De todos modos un campeón se las arregla estando bien o mal, no excuses a Nadal, el perdió bien. O si no compara ese partido con el que tuvo hace poco contra Casper Ruud en la final, Nadal venía de partidos largos, problemas con su rodilla y pie, luego de ganar la final tuvo que estar un rato en silla de ruedas, si Nadal hubiera perdido tu crees que se hubiera excusado por sus molestias físicas y mentales? Las veces que perdió por culpa de eso, no lo hizo.
NADAL ES EL MEJOR DEPORTISTA DE LA HISTORIA 💪🏼🇪🇦 ❤
Cuando se retire Rafael Nadal 🇪🇸 los franceses deberían hacerle una estatua en Roland Garros, a ser posible de oro macizo 😁
Creo que ya hay una de hecho
Pues, es que fue tantos años atrás... que importancia tiene 😎
Soderling had 15 minutes of fame, he will never be in history at the same level as Nadal. Wouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence when speaking of records
Vamossssssss rafaaaa, España Loveeeeeee os esperamos a 😉todos 😉, España esta de vuelta, 😉todos a las playas españolas
Rafael Nadal n'a pas le corps d'un joueur de tennis, il a le corps d'un footballeur et il devient champion dans un domaine où il n'est pas avantagé.
Super l'homme ❤
Nadal can be defeated at RG but not in the Final. He's 13-0 at Roland Garros Final
2010 is nadals best season on clay . And the best clay season even . 3 masters 1 RG
Something to point out here about Soderling, how can I miss two chances to win, consecutively, RG? He beat Rafa in the semifinals, to face Roger Federer, and the Swiss defeated him forcefully. A year later, he faces Federer in the semifinals, defeats him and goes to the final against Rafa Nadal and he retaliates for his defeat in the semifinals by the Swede. This is what I call not having a winning mentality, where Rafa, Roger and Novak are experts in that field, period!
Soderling knocked out Nadal not in the semi-finals in 2009, but in the 4th round
If Soderling managed to beat Nadal (on clay) and Federer in the same GS run it would of gone down in history as the greatest run of all time. Its not so easy..
Great match
je me rappelais pas du tout qu'il l'avait battu en final ,un après!
Rafa lengend
Fast Forward to 2022 ,,,Rafa has 23 Grand slams and of which 13 are RG....
El récord de Nadal en Roland Garros es lo más dominante en la historia del deporte, 112-3 vengando esas 3 derrotas ganándole 1 final a Soderling y si no me equivocó Rafa le ganó 3 finales a Djokovic, y además ganó las 14 finales que jugó... Rafa es un fuera de serie
Remember he won the tournament without dropping a set
How stylish was Nadal those days....
Soderling was playing not that aggressive this time.
This Jamaican, cheering for Rafa no matter who he's up against, Go Rafa
No revenge here. Rafa played with an injury in 2009. He was just being himself in 2010, so Noboding got pulverized.
Rafa in 2009 was not at his besh while soderling was and had nothing to lose ! In 2010 its a final and rafa in his best....no one beat rafa in Roland when he is at his besg ! And even more unbeatable when it is a final
2009 Nadal was at his best, in great form. 2011 as well and almost lost there as well. Nadal. Is the best ever in RG but still beatable as shown many times. As well with Isner or Del Potro etc.
Rafael Nadal N01 gentilman talented honesty handsham player forever ever
Are we really talking revenge against a man who very soon after retired permanently from tennis on medical reasons?...
Solderling es un jugador extraordinario, podría haber llegado mas lejos con un plus de fuerza mental, controlándose mas emocionalmente seguro ganaba algún GS.
Dijo que jugaba al tenis no para hacer amigos su carácter iel haberle ganado a Nadal una vez se creyó número uno inadal lo destruyó x conpleto
@@cutcut1104 por eso mismo...si hubiera controlado sus emociones más allá de perder partidos con Nadal hubiera llegado mas lejos...Djokovic perdió tmb muchos partidos y finales con Nadal sin embargo fujate donde está ahora.
Sin lugar a dudas q si, una verdadera lástima, porque era uno de los pocos ( además del mejor de todos NOVAK DJOKOVIC, federer, murray, JUAN MARTÍN DEL POTRO y no recuerdo otro) le jugaba al gallego sin miedo y eran partidos muy parejos.
Roger should give Soderling 5 million dollars.
