Borg, who is considered one of the mentally strongest players in tennis history, told ATPWorldTour.com, "You have to realise that to win on clay you will need to stay on court for many hours. So first of all you have to be really fit. When you are physically tired, you soon become mentally tired, and then you start to have trouble concentrating and begin to take risks. In the long run that always means losing matches."
"Tennis has missed Rafa and it will be interesting to see how he performs," Borg told ATPWorldTour.com. "I am sure he will be ready for the Golden Swing of tournaments."
"Nadal has dominated because he has incredible stamina, every shot in the book and because of the way he plays the angles of the court," Muster told ATPWorldTour.com. "To win on clay, you have to have fantastic endurance, be powerful and flexible, a complete player. I always thought you needed to be physically fit and have every shot. Nadal has that. In my mind, winning on clay was always the greatest test in tennis."
