Nadal: Q. “Sport without goals is stupid”, you have said. A. These are things that I’ve always thought and lived so. We must be realistic: playing tennis without a goal… okay. I hit the ball with a racket so that it goes over the net. What does that mean? Very little. Itself is stupid. Sports in general are stupid if one does not bring them to the fullest. The fullest is to play with a goal, with passion, with motivation. That’s what I’ve always thought in my whole life. When I play golf I try to do my best. People get it wrong sometimes. They say: “What he loves is winning.” What I love is the competition, the effort, focusing to try to do my best. Obviously, I like to win, but what really satisfies me is the feeling that I am doing the best I can. If not, it does not make sense to me. If not, let’s accept that we go for a laugh and let’s do something else.
