Rafa Loses to the World in Poker



Rafael Nadal took to the internet today to challenge “the World” in a game of fast hand poker for charity (see video above). Poker fans will probably find the level of poker a little, well, novice, but Rafa fans will certainly enjoy the ongoing banter in which Nadal takes questions from users on Twitter.

ATP: Murray takes issue with WTF qualification rules

During the #AskRafa Q&A Nadal reveals that the one shot he’d like to improve most in his arsenal is his serve, so watch out ATP tour, we could see Nadal ramping up the MPH in 2015 just like he did in 2010.

The event was just a warm-up for Rafa. The king of clay is in poker training for a showdown with Brazilian soccer star Ronaldo on Nov. 6 in London.

Also note: Nadal is 3-1 vs. the World, so maybe he took it easy on the competition today just so they could have a little fun.
