What makes a champion? Rafael Nadal reveals the answers in his memoir, co-authored with journalist John Carlin. He shares the secrets of his game and the inspiring personal story behind his success, starting in Mallorca, where his family has deep roots. Coached by his uncle Toni from age four and instilled with humility and respect by his parents, Nadal has achieved global fame while remaining a gracious role model. He takes readers behind the scenes, recounting moments from his career, including the iconic 2008 Wimbledon final, deemed by John McEnroe as "the greatest game of tennis" ever played, as well as the personal challenges he faced in 2009 and the injuries that have threatened his journey. With candor and insight, Nadal narrates his dramatic and triumphant path, emphasizing the value he places on family unity and love. He reflects on the mental battles during matches, describing the need to suppress vulnerabilities and emotions. He explains that while talent gaps can exist, overcoming self-doubt and fears is crucial to victory. This self-hypnosis transforms him into a "bloodless warrior," allowing him to mask weaknesses and focus on the game with deadly seriousness.
