Marion Bartoli Says Rafael Nadal Lacks Power In His Game Right Nowby Tom Gainey | July 28th, 2015, 10:04 amI read this the other day and some people were trashing her. It's a dumb article anyway. We can all see that Rafa is not as his usual level. This is a waste of ink. Former Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli was commenting about Rafael Nadal earlier this month. The Frenchwoman with the high IQ said that Nadal is struggling because he no longer can hit the ball with power like his did before, especially off the serve.“When you play against him [Nadal] the ball is 25 kilometres per hour slower, the opponent doesn’t have the same difficulty to play,” she told Perform.“When he serves, he can’t go beyond 115 miles per hour.“He is exposed in every return.“There is an [solution] and his team need to find it because it’s vital for him.”She also said that Nadal is not part of the Big 4 – Nadal, Andy Murray, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic – right now.“With the honours he has won, yes [he is still in it]. But with his level at the moment, no,” she said.
