30 individual titles ( including 4 French Open & 1 Wimbeldon), a Davies
Cup title & now an Olympic Gold Medal after defeating Chilean
Fernando Gonzalez 6-3, 7-6, 6-3.
To add to this years golden run, tomorrow Rafael Nadal will be officially
acclaimed as the World´s Nº1 ranked player in Tennis, taking the spot off
long time "owner" Roger Federer.
Amazing for such a youngman & for a Spaniard. Rafael Nadal is
the personafication & the epitomy of what this country aspires to
be in the modern World: a winner, humble yet proud, persistant,
International prestige, hard working, cosmopolitan, a tough &
calculating mentally & a great Champion. These qualities are not
common to the mayority of Spaniards who are everything opposed,
but things are changing & Rafael Nadal is leading the generational
change.
Along with him are others: the young Spanish Football Squads
( U-15, U-17,U-20 & the National side: Torres, Casillas, Cesc, Iniesta
...), Pau Gasol (Basketball), Fernando Alonso (Formula 1), Pedrosa,
Lorenzo,Bautista, Debón...(Moto GP), Sergio Garcia (Golf)...etc & etc.
The Spanish mentality is changing, its opening & its globalizing, all thanks
to Nadal & his barrier breaking mentality & humanity. Thank you Rafael,
thanks for making this country feel optimistic & proud, we hope not to
wave the flag & praise you when you only win, but also be there for you
when you lose. As we all know its common for Spaniards to disappear
from the "spotlight" & scene when things go bad & the good times
disappear.
