After Rafael Nadal advanced to the semifinals, John McEnroe spoke and praised the Spaniard.
In the match after a great fight and five sets, Nadal managed to defeat Denis Shapovalov.
- “That’s why Rafa is great, because he knows how to put pressure on the rival at the right moments. He was able to do that and that’s what sets these guys apart. Shapovalov must understand that mentally he must rise to a higher level. ” John says.
Mats Wilander pointed out that he is not sure that Rafa can triumph at the Australian Open, but McEnroe does not agree with that statement.
“I don’t think he came here at all and didn’t believe he could win.” Mats can say that because he was like that. ‘Oh, I mean I can’t, the other guys are… I’m just happy to be here.’ Nonsense, ”John McEnroe concluded.
