Sixth time's the charm


Yesterday Rafael Nadal won the French Open for the sixth time. Yes, sixth. His record at the French is 45-1. Meaning for six out of seven years he's entered the tournament and won it. Rafa's my favorite male tennis player. There are so many great things about him, but what I love most about him comes from his coach, his uncle, Toni. Uncle Toni has said that he taught Rafa how to be a good person, not just a good tennis player. And that if Rafa ever starting acting cocky instead of humble, or ever let fame, money or winning change him, Uncle Toni wouldn't coach him anymore.

So congrats, Rafa! A well deserved win for one of the best tennis players ever. And also one of the best people ever. Looking forward to watching you defend you title at Wimbledon is just a couple short weeks!
