Nadal is King of Clay again. I was not aware of how few slams he had won outwith RG.
..................and what about Murray's new coach?

Nadal's record at the French Open is just ridiculously good. To have only lost once in 67 matches over 10 separate years is just phenomenal. I say this hesitantly but I don't think that we'll see anyone else win nine titles at a single Grand Slam for many decades, if at all.
Nadal's only just turned 28 as well and given how dominant he is on clay, I can see him winning the French Open for the next two or three years.
Although on the face of it, it is a little bit surprising that Nadal hasn't won the others very much, if he wins the Australian Open again in his career, he'll become the first man in the Open Era (since 1968) to win all 4 majors at least twice.
Roger Federer is also one away from doing it but he needs to win the French Open again and that's not very likely.
It will be interesting to see how Nadal does at Wimbledon this year, given his early exits in the previous two years.
