Rafael Nadal teasing a journalist
The video is from the Australian Open where Rafael Nadal teased an Italian journalist, who appeared to be asleep right in the middle of a press conference. Rafael Nadal was answering a question about his match with James Duckworth when he noticed journalist Ubaldo Scanagatta had his eyes closed. The tennis ace nodded in Scanagatta’s direction, saying it must not be very interesting (referring to the match and the presser). When the journalist woke up, Nadal continued teasing him, saying Scanagatta must have closed his eyes to stay focused on what the champion was saying.

It is not uncommon to see family members, especially the elderly, dozing off in the chairs after having a hearty meal. Meanwhile, it is going to be a great Christmas for Rafael Nadal, who ended the year as World No.1. He has had a fantastic year on and off the field. The Spaniard won 6 trophies this year including the French Open, US Open and the Davis Cup. On the personal front, Rafael Nadal tied the knot with his long-term sweetheart in Mallorca.
