"The best Rafa is on the court, without a doubt. I have never broken a racket in my life, but... To be honest, I have felt the urge on several occasions. I wasn't allowed to do it when I was little, and as an adult, I forbade it myself.
However, I don't think it's necessary to have a course on Rafael Nadal at the university; there's no need to exaggerate things that aren't so exceptional."
