ATP > Gill Gross, tennis analyst: “A random thought on Nadal: Roland-Garros 2022 was his last title. The list of players whose last career title will remain a Grand Slam is so long that we can develop theories on the reasons for this phenomenon”

Tennis analyst Gill Gross, working for Tennis Channel as well as the US Open, recently shared a thought related to Rafael Nadal‘s retirement.

“A random thought on Rafa… Roland Garros 22 was his last title (his 92^e career title, editor’s note). The list of players whose last career title will remain a Grand Slam is so long that one can develop theories on the reasons for this phenomenon. Motivational peaks and troughs are more extreme for older players. The satisfaction that Grand Slam titles provide can accelerate the descent into retirement. »
