I prefer grass or indoor hard court, i don't like a lot clay. Rafael Nadal
Speechless.................i think Nadal comes from Mars or Jupiter.........
He was lying about clay back then lol.
He said he liked clay too.
interesting cause Nadal struggled a lot on faster hard courts, and grass early in his career. His game was just not suited to them. He did an amazing job of adapting his playstyle though over the years.
he didn't say he didn't like clay. He said he likes clay
Djokovic is too friggen cute with his big baseball cap and baggy 90's clothes.
Haha he’s the most cute
Reminds of of Chucky
Nole really had the same haircut his whole life 😂
GOAT haircut...🤗
Thuglife
just add a beard to mini nole you have him now
Nole the only one not losing hair.
@@lyndacarolina nole the only one not using hair due jabs
6:20 Djokovic applauds his opponent, at such a young age. Something he does often now as well
He's horrible. He's got a terrible attitude. He's not applauding but mocking. Here what he said in interview b4 he got crushed in his prime by Stan the Man Roland G...
He's always been a punk that's why no one 'really' likes him. And he knows it.
That football clip mentioning Rafa in the beginning... MY GOODNESS! Amazing stuff
At first I was really confused but I think i know why.
Football = soccer
@@MyChannel-od3pf yeah football is the game in which you mostly touch the ball with your foot. That's why the name makes sense
@@nemoschmitz2374
Yah it definitely makes more sense

Get verify
Djokovic looks exactly the same when he was 7 to now
looks and acts the same. Maybe better behaved back then.
@uxpjsxu what does he do now that bothers you fed fanboy? Winning too much?
@@uxpjsxu Yes Frauderer fanboy?? Why doesnot novak let you sleep now??
@@uxpjsxu He definitely acts better now.
Yeah Djokovic is a baby face, I too haven't changed since I was 14 and I'm nearly 22 now
Rafa, I like indoor or grass better than clay....
😂 Sure rafa, we believe you!
2022... I still don't belive him....
That did not age well.
Now Rafa is the King ..
Just because a player likes a surface doesn't necessarily equate to them having more success on it. He just happened to have the right mentality to face adversity on clay. You'll still hear him admit to preferring faster surfaces.
@@JiraiyaSama86 I know, I just found the irony amusing...
@@Nickthegamingnerd here's more irony. Federer has admitted at certain points that he prefers slower surfaces. Funny how they both turned out.
little djokovic's outfits went hard
Peak 90s style
Seeing the slice of Federer at 12 years old gives me chills. Didn't change of an inch! Pure talent
It’s always so interesting to see players at a young age because all their strokes and unique tendencies are still with them today, they’re just more refined.
I noticed that too! Tennis strokes are just so individualistic and instinctive; it can be tuned and refined but for every person it’s just how they naturally hit the ball.
@@SamuelChanSauMan Even at the amateur level it's interesting watching the different styles each person has.
Nadal still throws his whole body w/ every stroke. Roger is still so smooth appearing effortless. Djokovic still the aggressive base liner.
10000x more refined and lethal
Yep... Still picking his pants out of the crack of his ass at 13 years old.... Always consistent is that boy.
That kid Nole was incredibly good at such a young age!
Djokovic was tiny and adorable. It’s like they picked him out and said you’re going to be one of the greatest tennis players of all time and he was like “Ok, it’s my duty!” 😂
of course
Yes yes
He also went on to headshot a lineswomen and disqualify.
@@JC-gy2kt OMG. Well I’m sure it was an accident. Is she ok? I remember when Tim Henman did that.
Yep it was an accident
I really wish someone would play that clip of nadal saying he likes indoor hard and grass over clay to him now and see how he reacts 🤣
he still likes grass and hardcourt over clay. He said it in an interview in 2018. Likes doesnt equal good at
“We’ll take note of the surname Nadal, just in case”.
13 french open titles later: 👁👄👁
Yeah he said he didn't like clay either. 61 clay titles and a 81 match winning streak on the surface later......
14 now
14 French open titles later now 😂
14 french opens....
Djokovic tapping the ball while serving when he was 5 years old was exactly the same what he is doing now….
But fortunately less long 😉
"we'll take note of the surname Nadal, just in case"

What made them champions was the love and kindness of their parents and coaches growing up - praise and support, not harshness, makes great players!
I saw a documentary about Djokovic. His family basically sacrificed everything for him, including his siblings. All their extra money went to paying for his tennis and they were not a wealthy family. The other kids had to basically give up their sports dreams for him because the family knew how good he could be even at a young age. None of them hold any resentment towards him and love that he became the tennis start that he is. It's pretty remarkable. He also recognized early on how much they put into his tennis and he felt the pressure of becoming a pro tennis player so all his families sacrifices would pay off.
@@trevorpullen3199 thats why he said at such young age that tennis was a duty and His clear goal to be n1
Djokovic has had the same haircut his whole life lmao
Little Djoko was so cute…
Nole's 90s outfits bring so much memories of growing up in yugoslavia lol
"the goal for me is to be numer 1 " Nole 1991
Nole 2021- 320 weeks being No1 in the ranking ATP
simply amazing
Jun 2022. 373 nedelje broj 1❤️
This indeed unreal! He also has a lot consecutive weeks as nr 1 too, I guess. I don't know how many though... in the past was there any other one with similar record? Maybe Jimmy Connors?
Sadly nobody really play tennis for weeks at number one or even years as number one but for actuall titles specially the Majors
@@cocotimbo Federer has the all-time record. I do not know how many weeks, but I think it's in the 400's.
I might be wrong.
@@christopherwellman2364 Federer has the record of consecutive weeks as Mr. 1 which is 237 weeks. Djokovic has spent the most weeks as world nr. 1: 373 weeks. Source: Wikipedia.
Nole was so cute 😻 !
The cutest indeed of them all 😍
3:38 Federer's style of playing slice hasn't changed much!
When he was young Roger got angry on the court very quickly, but now he's one of the calmest players on the tour. Beautiful evolution GOAT !
Was calm bro.
Probably not goat but I agree with u
Because of nadal
His parents told him he was an embarrassment and they wouldn't come to his matches anymore.
@@dawnhasbroken6304 r/whhhoooshhh
The 3 at age 14 had more desire to win than most of the current tour right now.
Beautiful videos of Novak , especially the first one where he had only 4 years.
Rafa: I prefer indoor and grass than clay.
(Becomes clay legend)
Novak: I like forehands the most
(Becomes the player with arguably the best backhand ever)
The Creator has a funny sense of humor.
He said that he likes forehand, backhand and volley. His forehand is still one of the best
Hahahaha good point
@@boriskostic6964 His volley one of the worst
The Universe is hilarious! 😃
@@anmaria01 Point-Game-Set-Match!
Omg that coach with tiny Novak is the cutest thing I've ever seen!!! "Bravo Nole! Look what Nole's doing!" even when he hit it almost straight into the court. That man is a patron saint of little kid athletes in my eyes :)
baby djokovic is the cutest thing ever
Nadal, Djokovic etc speaking another language: let's put English subtitles.
Murray: ... let's put English subtitles
Can’t believe he said i like indoor and grass better than clay. Rafa
I can't believe his technique was better when he was a kid.
5:50 Djokovic still has the same serve 😂🤣😂
Noles coach calling him a champion. Rest is history
Correction. Greatest champion
Rafa was a child prodigy. Excellent at tennis & football.
2:34 You see the moment he thought about slamming down his racket, but thought to himself "No, Toni will kill me!"
Roger, on the other hand just went ahead & did it! He had a BAD temper!
LOL Yes, it seems that way! But notice he never let the rackets hit the court! I know he was just frustrated with himself. Over time, age, and, especially, experience, he became satisfied with himself.
I saw an interview a long time ago with Roger's mum and she said she had told him that she would not come and watch his matches any more if he continued to be bad tempered and behave badly on court. He obviously listened.
Roger learned it differently. What is bad about that?
@@chumjetza6251 The term is "bad tempered". I didn't say it was "bad", although his Mum thought it wasn't good..
6:35
"The goal is for me to be number 1."
And indeed, he became the most complete number 1.
I love how each one if them had a crystal clear goal at a such a young age, and most of them achieved their goals, atleast the big 3
Not too difficult to state those goals if you are national champion at a very young age
5:23 Bravo Nole 🥺😭💖
Djokovic somehow did not age since 14
@Avinash Anandlol ☠️☠️☠️
Haha!
He has way more beard growth. But apart from that…
Because goat haircut and face already established as a kid
He is a vegetarian...doesn't eat crap!
How ironic Rafa prefered indoor or grass than clay😁😁😁
Baby 🐐 was so cute incredible at such a young age. Him clapping for opponent and his intellect when he's just 7, the answers my gawd! For him playing was a duty and he wanted to be no.1 which he manifested so well with 386 week record. GOAT mentality right there from the childhood. Nole the 🐐👑❤
It's a lifetime of hard work and dedication..
Good to know I could've put up a good fight against Novak.... when he was 4.
I can beat Djokovic easily when he was 4 weeks old
Daym this comment deserves a trophy 🏆😂🙏🙏
@@vishnu2183 Hilarious tableau!
Hey, o.p., but you'd still lose lol
Facts lmao
This was good fun. Seeing the big 3 and Murray when they were kids makes me appreciate how far they've come.
You saying "Big Three" made me think of something! Let's see some Sampras, Agassi, McEnroe, etc. when they were kids!
@@christopherwellman2364 That would be great too mate☝🏽
@@pawshands9706 Yeah! On those old cameras!
@@christopherwellman2364 with all we pay for devices, they better come up with a resolution solution. 😄
@@pawshands9706 😄
Novak was incredible as a kid. very cunning !
I don't understand why Federer is so loved. Even young age he looks everything but symphatic
6:35 if only he knew
Yeah 🍩🙄💆🏻♀️
Djokovic at 4... look at his face you can see how much he was into it already even at 4 XD
Adorable little Nole:)
Seeing Djokovic play as a child moved me
djokovic attitude as a kid is still the same as now for him it was all about defeating his opponents and becoming number 1, same for nadal just humble and always promising to do his best no chest thumping i think we dont always turn out different from our young selves only the environment and relationships change but the egos, attitude and goals still remain the same
Federer managed to turn from a talented player with an attitude like Safin's to a more stoic composure
@@S1rWakka I love Federer. Discutivelmente, the most beautiful style of tennis.
Interesting how Nadal, Djokovic and Thiem clearly changed their forehand technique (from a loop technique which breaks the plane) to a modern abbreviated technique between ages 14 and 17.
Nadal, "...but I like clay too." Yeah, he sure does.
Djokovic really loves his haircut
This is awesome to see. Thanks for putting this together 🙏
The 3 masters ruling Tennis for 2 decades: Roge, Rafa & Joker
Nole at 7 years old played better tennis than I do and I have played over 10 years of tennis ahahha
Even at 16 years old, Rafa is thinking of working hard. Still does at 36
As kid nole so cute
Hvala im svima za sve uzitke,sjajni momci
Novak kept the same hair the whole way. Now that’s some dedication
Raphael Nadal still a shy guy and he was quite cute as small boy.
He started playing in the under 16 back in the 1990s.
Acompanho desde guri com meus filhos que jogavam tênis e ele era o ídolo. Uma benção ter vivido na mesma época deste fenômeno que acompanho até hoje. Parabéns futuro papai
I love how I find their original voice after they turn 16
Nadal 3:12 "I like grass more than clay" (lol)
For these great tennis stars have come a long way and it's wonderful
Novak was best in childhood among all
Novak's goal was to be no 1. He is on the verge of being no 1 for most weeks
Hehe look at him now. 2 more for 20 slams. If he can win RG then he is the best 🐐
@@vanik2021 bruh he has two slams less but makes up for it with most weeks at number one
@@vanik2021 Well...
@@vanik2021 this aged well lol
N° 1 des N° 1 ...
Djoković one and only
" I prefer Indoor or Grass more than Clay"
In today’s time if you asked me who said this quote, my answer would be ‘Definitely not Rafa Nadal’
What a masterpiece buddy!!
Awwwww tiny Nole😍😍 the first clip. 💙💙💙💙
Federer in the first clip 😂 Gets really upset and puts his hands on his hips! Haha, adorable
The goal is to be no.1. He is now the record holder to be no. 1 for most weeks
that backhand slice of thiem’s hasn’t changed a bit 😄
Being a Federer fan, looking at the Big 3 when they were little, it's almost surreal. Novak was way too cute back then !
Awesome video!!! It’s nice to see the best play tennis as children 🎾
“I like indoor courts or grass better than clay.” 13 times French Open champion Rafa Nadal everbody!
*14 now
Teen Nadal : I like indoor and grass better than clay courts
Adult Nadal : Boy you are so wrong !
4:47 "I like the game of Sampras and Rios", grande chino!!!
thiem still has the same forehand 😂
And slice
Thiem in the last season or 2 came back with a much more abbreviated takeback on his forehand.
Rafa looks like the shy kid whos super smart and athletic but doesn’t talk to anyone, nole looks like the super athletic arrogant guy who says ‘dog’ and ‘dude’, and federer looks like a studious man who doesn’t like doing a lot of hard work 😂.
Now, they’re simply known as ‘the big three’
Awe little Novak is too cute, his son Stefan takes after him so much, but a blond version.
It is all about the personal evolution of these tennis talents. Expectations vs realty, prefences vs aversion, personality vs media.
All these three young men became charismatic, succesfull champions and idols. And just because they had the strength to change their mind or face their aversion. Very inspiring and empowering.
Part 2: Pete Sampras, Juan Martin Del Potro, Andre Agassi, Boris Becker
Could be hard to find clips of the young old players xD
@@sLlorcaTV I understand. Thanks for the response!
How cute was young Rafa!
The best of the Best! All my favorite.. 💪
Magnífica recopilación 😄
Nole,Rafa,Roger all of them 35+ years and still dominating
Its amazing to see how all these players retained their natural technique since they were kids - tells us that they all were gifted.
Fantastic video. I played/trained Pete Sampras, Mary Pierce, Alberto Berasategui and Alexandr Dolgopolov when they were kids. All I said was, “Great, . . Sorry. . Nice shot. . Sorry.”
1:32 Rafa's playing Gasquet there
And this has been the exact same pattern of play ever since.
This was nice, good job!
Rafa has the SAME grunting noise even now while hitting the ball!
Its funny hear Nadal saying he prefers grass over clay xD
Loved your collection. It is so refreshing to see young great guns. Rafa was always humble and true in making a statement. Nole was so adorable. Federer had superb class even at a young age. Keep posting such videos. Subscribing to your channel. Regards
Federer was a little Mcenroe like that commentator said. The class came later
@Paresh Mokani. They smothered poor Murray. It's a pity he played in their era. Poor thing. 😢😢
@@dorothysmith3205 Yes. But to his credit, Andy holds the most number of Grand Slams other than Big 3 among this generation or we can say era.
0:51 Nadal and the exact same service motion, the position of his head and how he brings the arm back, the follow-through. Wow. The other strokes look different, but not the serve.
I love watching his service motion and he had it the whole time that way.. Whereas the other young players' early service motion is really flopping around a lot.
Even John Mcenroe in the early years of the tour has a different serve. Watch a video of him in the US OPEn or early Wimbledon, when he was 17 or 18
But Nadal had the same motion.
Probably because he was so strong even then. He could lift the racket smoothly.
A beast from the very beginning - 2:29 - Same aggression, follow through and fist pump.
You hear nadals voice change from 14 to 16!! Lol.. that grunt got alot deeper
Awesome unseen footage, nice one!!
Part 2: Kyrgios, Rublev, Medvedev, Tsitipas, Aslan & Sebastian Korda
Indiscutivelmente: NADAL, DJOKOVIC e FEDERER, os melhores de todos os tempos!
There's a new kid in town!
