Rafael Nadal he won his match 106, at 109, in his Roland Garros 2022 debut against the Australian jordan thompson. Another note on manacorí’s account, which will be 36 on June 3. He has more wins in Paris than the total Roger Federer at Wimbledon (105-14). The Swiss remains the male tennis professional with the most Grand Slam wins (369-60), surpassing the 300 mark, which he also surpassed Novak Djokovic (324-46) and now (not before 8:45 pm) he plans to reach the Balearic Islands (299-41).
I had to go through nocturnal which inaugurated the Parisian tournament in the last edition, that meeting was stated in the middle to boost box office revenue and also for television rights, as this meeting was exclusive to the Gallic country Amazon. They won’t be the condition Nadal wants, who prefers a more energetic ball, a drier and faster track, but neither should it be an excessive handicap in his first duel against another left-hander, the Frenchman Corentin Moutet, 23 years old and 139. in the world.
Manacorí’s game was according to the level required in a first week of the Grand Slam. Logically “I need to improve”, because when the demand is greater, but above all it requires that the pain in the left foot is kept at an acceptable threshold to compete.
accept the moment
“What happened is past. You have to accept the moment I am in, accept the situation and put all my effort every day. Then we will see how far I can go”, explained a Nadal who started not good on clay because he is low Montecarlo and Godo spend a month and a half vacation due to stress cracking in a rib.
Roland Garros is always another story, whether it comes full or with a lot of doubt and lack of filmmaking, as happened in the fall 2020 edition after a break due to the coronavirus. It commands respect, not “fear. No, apprehension, no. I have nothing to fear, ”said his opponent Corentin Moutetwith no problem being confused by how he idolized the Spaniards when he was young.
“I don’t know what to say because it will make big headlines. Let it be clear that this is a man. He even slept with Nadal’s Roland’s sleeveless shirt ”, confessed the Parisian, who will step on the home center in front of his reference, where he will have his first photo and premiere in court. They hadn’t trained together yet, the French didn’t want to force the situation.
“I shouldn’t bother my idols, or ask them for a picture or hit some balls. I prefer to see them, leave them and keep their image in my childhood, “explains Moutet, a tennis player who has a hand but has to make a decision to move away from the parameters of a Nadal who is in the higher sphere of the sport. .
“I imitated him in everything. I imitated his serve, his drive shot. Everything. Until one day I decided to do what was really best for me. And that must have happened so that he would no longer be imitating ”, said the Frenchman, who vowed not to be impressed by the passage. “I will concentrate on myself, try to enjoy myself, do my best to try to win. And let’s see what happens. “
The pianist
The responsibility falls on Nadal, though he is more accustomed. Moutet, who also has piano talent, has not won at Roland Garros since reaching the third round in 2019, when he was regularly in the top-100.
