    • Kunal Pradhan Tags : Rafael Nadal, French Open Posted: Thursday , Jun 04, 2009 at 0024 hrs

    In defeat, Nadal showed this week that he has all the ingredients of a true champion. If Federer goes on to win the title he wants more than any other, the greatest-ever badge pinned on his chest will rest more legitimately. But with six Grand Slam wins before his 23rd birthday (which was yesterday), Nadal may not end up too far behind by the time he calls it a day.

    And if he doesn’t reach the heights his great Swiss rival has already scaled, we can rest assured that he will neither weep nor rant about it.

    Rare ArticleBy: Sunder Thakur | 04-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Kunal has written a very good piece. It is such pieces that we need for our sports persons. A sportsman without values and character can never become great.Hope he keeps writing on such matters in his future columns also.
    Sports By: Commoner | 04-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Commercialisation of sports , that most democratic and meritocratic arena of all, has indeed led to this phenomenon. For a moment of glory, for the dollars that it brings, we see all the dark sides of professional sports. It is refreshing to see examples such as displayed by Rafaa. After all, there's more to life than a victory in a sport !
