Is Rafael Nadal a christian?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In an interview with Sports Illustrated he said: "I would love to know if God exists. But it's a very difficult thing for me to believe. I don't know". I guess that would make him an Agnostic, although there is some overlap between atheism and agnosticism in the sense that, in both there is no pragmatic function assumed for the concept of God in real-life situations.

Rafael Nadal plays golf and pretty well. He has a 9 handicap.

Former master golf champion Fred Copples who plays with him lately, says he is quite a hard driver and has been overdrove by Rafael on one hole.

He could become a professionnal golfer eventually.

He also like fishing at sea and plays a soccer video game.

Whenever possible, he will follow his spanish soccer team on TV or live at the stadium.

Otherwise, he goes out with his old friends in his island, when on vacation.
