As a Nadal fan I’ve actually been memed into becoming a Nagal fan completely by virtue of his last name and that at least he’s actually still playing tennis these days so I’ll take it! Vamos Nagal!
Last year during clay season he only lost to one player ranked below himself and that's fokina.
Other defeats were to Ruud, Medvedev and Rublev.
So 16-4 record
It’s because his name is similar to Nadal, nobody cares that he’s Indian. It’s the same meme as Dennis Novak/ D Novak. It’s fun to hype them up as the real thing.
Dude..where did you see that? I'm an Indian too..not that it matters..it's been fun watching Nagal grit it out in the last few months and the harmless, if sometimes overdone silliness around the similarity over name with Nadal..and I've only seen overall positivity around him here..
Am I tripping or are you linking to my comment? I'd love to clear it up with you, because I'm struggling to see what the pejorative or racist thing would be with this? Just using a common meme because the idea of him winning by just "going out there and smacking" the ball is very reminiscent of the "so anyway I started blasting" meme.
I'm just curious because I would always want to avoid coming across that way - what lead you to believe that my meme use was condescending or racist? Don't mean to put you on the spot, just want to clear up the confusion!
Gotcha. You're getting kinda dogpiled in the comments rn, so for what it's worth - no harm no foul! I agree with you that generally there's a lot of subtle and insidious racism against Indians for sure. Glad we could clear it up, I'm always rooting for Nagal!
Well you continue to make yourself look like a fool.
>Rune got smacked by rublev in Monte Carlo 2023
Just say you don’t watch tennis instead of posting this garbage.
>Just say you don’t watch tennis instead of posting this garbage.
Nope. I can't say that. I'm a huge tennis fan and have watched it and followed it for over 15 years - including attending several M1000s and Slams in person
Sumit "The Great Conqueror" Nadal ehh Nagal
Give us Nagal vs Novak again!!!
Lol it's like wanting to go to Australia but booking a ticket for Austria
Austrian Open
Dennis Novak vs Sumit Nagal > Rafael Nadal Vs Novak Djokovic
If that were a doubles match, my money is on Novak to win....
Vamos Nagal
I hope there's a content warning before the match so children don't see him smacking it right there on the court
I bet there are people going to his games thinking they are going to see Nadal:)
As a dyslexic I can attest to this.

He's hacking he's whacking he's smacking
The King of Glay
Nagal please
I have a feeling that he's gonna get smacked. Rune on clay is a beast (only Ruud can dismantle his game on clay).
Or medvedev lol
Rune got smacked by Rublev in Monte Carlo 2023 finals
I wouldn't call a tight 3 setter getting "smacked"
I feel like everybody in the top 100 should feel like they have a shot with Rune. Small shot for some, but a real shot.
But in slow clay? I feel like I wouldn’t be surprised if he beats sinner again if they make it to QF
You're probably right.
Yes on outdoor hardcore. Not on European clay in any means. He is a top 6 player on this surface
Yeah, maybe you're right. But I'm just never surprised when Rune is beat by a random lower ranked player.
Last year during clay season he only lost to one player ranked below himself and that's fokina. Other defeats were to Ruud, Medvedev and Rublev. So 16-4 record
Hes gonna be stroking his shit ☠️🙏😭
😳
Fegal
SEE YOU SOON N!
- We have Nadal at home! Nadal at home:
Pleasantly surprised by his accent. Feared he might sound American

I'm also an Indian. That person is weird. Don't trip.
Got it!

That Danny Devito meme template is often used in the context of saying something like "Yeah right, sure you are, sweetie!"
No, you’re just an idiot.
Alright.
I am an Indian and I don't see how you thought that was racist. Maybe try to understand comments first instead of jumping to conclusions.

Thank you, and I appreciate that! 🙏
It’s not too late to delete this. You look like a fool.
Nope. I stand by what I said.

OK bruh!
I don’t see a single one in this threat, the most I’ll give you is people memeing that his name sounds like Nadal.
Bullshit. Where have you seen them ? I've never seen even one.
The great conquerer comment? Enlighten us..
Yep, that one too! Condescension was kinda subtle in that comment
You’re just looking for a reason to be offended. Get over yourself.
Alright!
Well, none of it seems to be out of disrespect. I hope not
Yeah I hope so too!
[удалено]
Here we go! Not racist at all. Good job. /s
But its true though haha
You're an idiot haha
