2012: Lukas Rosol, 100th player of ATP rankings, knocked out Nadal in round 2. 2013: Steve Darcis, p> 2014: Nick Kyrgios, then the 144th man of the world ranking, overcame Nadal in the eighth round. 2015: Dustin Brown, p> One of the best players in the history four times in a row on the Grandslam before the quarterfinals, each time outsiders.In 2008 and 2010, he rejoiced in Wimbledon's triumph (year 2009 missed out), and he succumbed to the final of Srba Djokovic four years ago. "In two cases I had problems with my knees, and last year I was ready fight, but I lost, "Nadal compared unexpected defeats. "I do not know if I get back to the level of 2008 or 2010, but I'm not afraid of it. It's my motivation. " Nadal's year is not too good - after ten years he has dropped out of the elite five of the world rankings. The first two grandslames ended in the quarterfinals. He did not even hit big clay companies. Of course, London has reached the tenth place as the winner of the grass tournament in Stuttgart. "I did well at Wimbledon. I lost, I'm sad.But I have to make up for it. I accept that I am not so good. I hit a better player. I have to defeat and congratulate my opponents, "the 29-year-old Spaniard said humbly at a press conference. "Forehand did not have the whole game.I made too many mistakes. "Nadal looked disappointed, but with the journalist he also cried - when asked if he would stay with his family in London or return home to Mallorca, he said:" Work has ended here , so if you want, the flat is free from Friday. " The tennis experts, in search of the causes of Spaniard's disqualification, agreed that Nadal is struggling with a lack of self-confidence. "Rafa lost an aura in Wimbledon, the rivals feel it," said John McEnroe for the BBC. "I am surprised how fragile the confidence of a player who has won fourteen grandslames," added Tim Henman. Of course, the debate over whether Nadal is old is likely to end his era.Against Federer's age he has been for good for four years, but the physically demanding style of the game destroys his body. But Nadala has depreciated so many times, and he was able to return after the injury, he was champion again. That's why McEnroe also says, "I still believe that Rafa will win some grandslames." And Nadal spoke deliberately, saying he is not the kind of person who would be losing for another 14 days in a loser, though difficult. "I'm going, it's not over. It's an unfortunate moment, but life goes on. And a career too. I have to go on. " At the end of the press conference he said, perhaps as a message to the critics:" Remember that I played here five times the final. I do not know how many tennis players did it.I have two trophies at home, it's not bad either. "By the way, McEnroe was five times in the Wimbledon final and only five other tennis players (Connors, Borg, Becker, Sampras, Federer) are in the open.
