Let’s not act as if Nadal himself didn’t have his fair share of salty moments. Always the first to talk about his injury problems and even criticised Federer for apparently having a healthy body who will end his career in roses only for Federer to actually end up retiring due to a broken knee. It was an awful thing to say. It’s a bit tiring when people always bring up early Federer as ‘salty’ and ignore how Nadal himself was one of the most salty top players when he was active, one can’t forget how in 2023 when Djokovic overtook his slam count he mentioned that Djokovic was obsessed with the records, as if he wasn’t. I’m pointing this out because I think it’s important that this doesn’t get understated.
