Nicnamed "Rafa" Rafael Nadal has set many of the world's "youngest" tennis playing records. This young man rose through the ranks of the professional tennis circuit so quickly that it has quite literally been like a "whirlwind'. He has enjoyed an extraordinary amount of wins, and this brief Rafael Nadal <a href="http://www.vince-carter.org/biography.html">biography</a>, takes us through just some of these.
Making his way to the number 2 tennis player on the planet has come easily to this young man, and he has had a winning streak on the clay court of 60 consecutive tennis matches.
Born on 3 June 1986 in Manacor, Majorca, Spain, he has a sporting background. His uncle Miguel Angel Nadal played professional football when he was only 15 years of age and played for F. C. Barcelona between 1986 and 2001.
Our Rafael Nadal biography tells us he was only 15 when he won his first professional tennis match the ATP in Mallorca. In this tennis match he defeated Ramon Delgado and became the ninth player to be younger than 16, to win and ATP tennis championship. One year later he became ranked among the top 100 singles tennis players world-wide the 2nd youngest player to achieve this claim to fame.
Making a debut at Wimbledon aged 16 years in 2003, he managed to reach the 3rd round. No tennis player since Boris Becker had done this. His meteoric rise to fame continued and by 2005 saw him ranked the 5th best tennis singles player, making him the youngest player to really make it into the top ten since Andrei Medvedev.
Rafa won a Grand Slam on his first appearance and is only the seventh player to ever achieve this. He also won the US open as a teenager, the first player to get this done since Pete Sampras in 1990. Pet Sampras was 19 years old at the time. He is quite literally a tennis hero, and as the <a href="http://www.allwrestlingworld.com/PIAA-Wrestling.html">winner</a> of four French Opens consecutively, deserves this accolade, so much in fact that this Rafael Nadal biography is important for one so young.
